Axial Vascularization of Nano-HA/Collagen/PLA Composites by Arteriovenous Bundle

In previous studies, nano-hydroxyapatite/collagen/poly(L-lactic acid) (nHAC/PLA) composites have been prepared and confirmed to repair small sized bone defects. However, they are restricted to repair a large defect without sufficient oxygen and nutrition for cell survival. The result of this study c...
