RESUMEN
Epiphyseal plate injury in children is very common, which can be caused by fracture, infection, malignant tumors, iatrogenic injury or other causes.Growth arrest and angulation or rotation deformity after epiphyseal plate injury would seriously affect the physical and mental health of children.At present, the success rate of bone bridge resection combined with corresponding material filling is super low.The construction of bioactive epiphyseal cartilage using cartilage tissue engineering technology has become a new research direction for the treatment of epiphyseal plate injury in children.Therefore, this review focuses on the current research on the regeneration of epiphyseal cartilage from the perspective of 3 elements of tissue engineering: seed cells, growth factors, and tissue engineering scaffolds.
