Mechanically Response scaffold for ligament and tendon regeneration

摘要

To provide a multi-area device for the reconstruction repair of joint tissue damage, such as tendons and ligaments were torn, or playback,. In braided 3D scaffold, the device comprises a degradable material in one and the material of non-degradable polymeric fibers based biocompatible least. (14a, b) the end portions of the two, it is designed to allow the ingrowth of bone cells and is designed for mounting the device in the implantation site, the middle one or more regions (12), the ligament is designed or so as to allow ingrowth of tendon cells.
