  /TX   Revenues and Revenue Growth Rates 
     
     In 1989, revenues for the total endoscopic accessories market in 
     1989 were $329.5 (see Figure 3-1). 
     
     In 1990, revenues grew by 23.2 percent to $406 million.  During 
     this period, an explosion in demand for rigid endoscopic 
     accessories occurred.  Many accessories were approved for 
     laparoscopic cholecystectomies by the FDA and simultaneously many 
     surgeons were trained to perform the newest endoscopic procedures. 
     Other markets also benefited from more therapeutic procedures 
     being performed.  In 1992, total endoscopic accessories market 
     revenues reached $597.4 million at a 19.6 percent growth rate. 
     Following the introduction of new rigid endoscopic accessories 
     (mostly laparoscopic cholecystectomy accessories, which caused 
     a tremendous growth period in previous years), the total 
     endoscopic accessories market revenue growth rate fell mildly. 
     However, this factor was offset by further growth in all other 
     endoscopic accessory markets. 
     
     Revenue growth rates are projected to slow in 1994 and 1995 at 17 
     percent as the total endoscopic accessory market reaches an end 
     to the phenomenal growth period following the introduction of new 
     endoscopic procedures, products, and physicians. 
     
     From 1995 to 1999, the market growth rate will again rise, 
     benefiting from newly introduced accessories which will increase 
     the number of possible procedures.  New accessories are expected 
     to be introduced in every market.  Also, the reusable accessories 
     market will rebound from its decline as more physicians 
     discontinue purchasing some disposables and renew purchases of 
     some reusables. 
          . 
          . 
          . 
     Also, a greater variety of endoscopic accessories will be 
     introduced into the market.  And, finally, the entire endoscopic 
     accessories market will be benefiting from the aging population. 
     
     Most endoscopic procedures are more common in people over 50 
     years, so as the population grows older, so will the number of 
     procedures rise each year.  The compound annual growth rate from 
     1992 to 1999 is forecasted to be 17.5 percent.
