Creating small diameter bioresorbable vascular grafts through electrospinning

Abstract

Seamless, non-woven, bioresorbable vascular prosthetics composed of sub-micron fibers have been successfully created through electrospinning. These prosthetics have proven to be both bioactive and mechanically viable during in vitro testing, and hold great potential to be conducive to in situ tissue engineering/regeneration in the future.
