The current status of tissue engineered biliary duct / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Researching tissue engineered biliary duct aims to repair,replace and regenerate damaged or diseased bile duct by using the in vitro constructed tissues.In this article,we reviewed the cell sources,and scaffolds and the current status of the construction of the tissue engineered biliary duct in tissue engineering.and discussed the existing obstacles and development trends.Tissue engineered biliary duct has an intriguing perspective for the replacement therapy,but it is still at an early stage,its true value remains to be evaluated.
