Advances in the construction of tissue engineering tracheal scaffold by 3D printing / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Tissue engineering has already become an important research direction of trachea substitute; the construction of the scaffold is one of the key factors for a tissue engineering trachea .With the development and the maturity of the technology of 3D-printing, the design and manufacture of the tissue engineered scaffold is widely broadened, various types of 3D-printed scaffold are researched constantly.This review aims to summarize and evaluates the latest progress of the experiments about 3D-printed tissue engineering scaffold.
