Abstract: Tissue engineering (TE) is a growing scientific field that combine bioengineering, life science and clinical sciences. This scientific field represents a valid alternative to treatment of several diseases such as cardiovascular pathologies, osteoarthritis, skin burns, and different traumatic injuries. One of the most useful technique employed to produce valid scaffold for tissue engineering is the electrospinning, that allow to obtain highly customizable nanopatterned meshes. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the currently available literature on electrospun scaffold aimed to regenerate tendons and ligaments using a TE approach.
