Tackling the Hidden Threats of Colorectal Surgery
At Nanoflexion, our science is focused on solving a persistent and serious problem in colorectal surgery — postoperative complications following colon resections, such as those performed in patients with colorectal cancer.
Although the surgical procedure is well-established, involving localization and removal of the tumor, resection of affected intestinal tissue or creation of a surgical connection (anastomosis).
Complications are still alarmingly common.
Our Solution:
A Nanofibrous Protective Patch
That’s why we developed a novel nanofiber-based patch – a simple yet powerful innovation designed to wrap around the anastomosis and protect it during the critical healing period.
Our patch is:
-
Biocompatible and biodegradable
-
Easily applied during surgery
-
Non-invasive – no additional tools required
-
Time-efficient – does not prolong the operation
During our initial in vivo testing, the application proved to be intuitive and fast – providing a seamless addition to standard surgical workflow.
The nanofibrous structure acts as a mechanical barrier, preventing leakage of intestinal contents, reducing inflammation, and limiting tissue adhesions around the surgical site.
Backed by 7+ Years of Research and Clinical Insight
The development of our patch began over 8 years ago with a single goal: to finally offer a solution that colorectal surgeons have been waiting for. Our approach combines:
-
Cutting-edge nanotechnology
-
Advanced materials science
-
Strong clinical relevance
We are proud to be among the first to demonstrate this technology in large animal models – an essential step toward future clinical use.
