Engineering a 3D Vascularized Adipose Tissue Construct Using a Decellularized Lung Matrix

Critically sized defects in subcutaneous white adipose tissue result in extensive disfigurement and dysfunction and remain a reconstructive challenge for surgeons; as larger defect sizes are correlated with higher rates of complications and failure due to insufficient vascularization following impla...
