Developing P(MMA-co-NVP) hydrogels for use in self-inflating, anisotropic tissue expanders

<p>Artificial tissue expansion is required to generate new skin prior to reconstructive surgery, in order to compensate for a deficit of healthy tissue. Hydrogel tissue expanders, which expand anisotropically, show great promise in overcoming clinical limitations in the field, thus allowin...
