Preferable tracheal reconstruction with the use of horseshoe-shaped regenerated cartilage
Description: In tracheal regeneration, the slow process of epithelialization is often a barrier to the stability and safety of the transplanted trachea. We succeeded in achieving stabile and safe implantation with canine surgery using organotipic tissue consist of chondrocytes and epithelial cells covering on horseshoe-shaped silicon block.
