Current situation on tissue engineering heart valve research and its future / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Valvular disease is a commonly seen heart disorder,valve replacement is an effective approach to treat valve disorders.Both the mechanic valves and bioprosthesis used now have their own defects,making it important for the cardio surgery field to develop some kind of ideal valves.With the development of tissue engineering techniques,the tissue engineering valves are thought to have great potential and bright clinical future,and now it has become a hot point in cardiac surgery.This article is to evaluate the frame materials,resource of tissue cells and implantation, in vitro pre adaptation testing and in vivo animal experiment results,and the existing problems are pointed out in the present study.
