A Bioactive Hydrogel and 3D Printed Polycaprolactone System for Bone Tissue Engineering

In this study, a hybrid system consisting of 3D printed polycaprolactone (PCL) filled with hydrogel was developed as an application for reconstruction of long bone defects, which are innately difficult to repair due to large missing segments of bone. A 3D printed gyroid scaffold of PCL allowed a lar...
