Tissue engineered vascular grafts are resistant to the formation of dystrophic calcification

Abstract Advancements in congenital heart surgery have heightened the importance of durable biomaterials for adult survivors. Dystrophic calcification poses a significant risk to the long-term viability of prosthetic biomaterials in these procedures. Herein, we describe the natural history of calcif...
