Beyond the Scalpel: Nanoparticle Network Hydrogels Redefine Surgical Care
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Nanoparticle Network Hydrogels (NNHs) represent an innovative advancement in general surgery, combining the biocompatibility of hydrogels with the multifunctionality of nanoparticles. They offer promising applications in wound healing, localized drug delivery, tissue engineering, and minimally invasive procedures. NNHs provide enhanced infection control, promote tissue regeneration, and enable targeted therapeutic delivery, addressing key surgical challenges. Despite current limitations in clinical translation, NNHs hold significant potential to transform surgical care and improve patient outcomes.
