First-in-human results of an in-body tissue architecture-induced tissue-engineered vascular graft “Biotube” for application in distal bypass for chronic limb-threatening ischemia

First-in-human results of an in-body tissue architecture-induced tissue-engineered vascular graft “Biotube” for application in distal bypass for chronic limb-threatening ischemia

Small-diameter vascular substitutes remain necessary, especially in the absence of an available autologous vein. Using a completely autologous approach termed “in-body tissue architecture,” a small-diameter, long, tissue-engineered vascular graft, a “Biotube,” was developed. A below-the-knee distal...
