Abstract
Repairing abdominal wall defects poses challenges for surgeons. Although mesh reinforcement is commonly used for primary repair, nanotechnology has emerged as a promising approach for developing innovative repair techniques. Most research in this area focuses on fabricating scaffolds designed specifically for abdominal wall repair, particularly in cases of hernia. These scaffolds are engineered to replicate the structure and function of the native extracellular matrix. This review aimed to summarize the existing studies on the application of nanotechnology in abdominal wall reconstruction following injury or repair.
