Tissue-engineered composite tracheal grafts create mechanically stable and biocompatible airway replacements

Tissue-engineered composite tracheal grafts create mechanically stable and biocompatible airway replacements

We tested composite tracheal grafts (CTG) composed of a partially decellularized tracheal graft (PDTG) combined with a 3-dimensional (3D)-printed airway splint for use in long-segment airway reconstruction. CTG is designed to recapitulate the 3D extracellular matrix of the trachea with stable mechan...
