Tissue engineering of ureteral grafts: Preparation of biocompatible crosslinked ureteral scaffolds of porcine origin

The surgical reconstruction of ureteric defects is often associated with postoperative complications and requires additional medical care. Decellularized ureters originating from porcine donors could represent an alternative therapy. Our aim was to investigate the possibility of manufacturing decell...
