[Nanotechnology applied to the transport of antibiotics in orthopedics and traumatology].

Bone infection and implants are a real problem in orthopedics. The formation of biofilm as well as multi-existing pathogens to antibiotics, make fighting them a difficult challenge with the tools we have today. With the aim of knowing the current state of nanotechnology applied to the transport of antibiotics in traumatology and orthopedics, and their projection in the future. We conducted a bibliographic review in June 2019. While much development of the topic and work on humans is lacking, experimental studies show that nanotechnology applied to antibiotic transport promises to be an important weapon in the treatment of bone infections in the future.
