Corrugated nanofiber tissue-engineered vascular graft to prevent kinking for arteriovenous shunts in an ovine model

Corrugated nanofiber tissue-engineered vascular graft to prevent kinking for arteriovenous shunts in an ovine model

Objective: Prosthetic grafts are often needed in open vascular procedures. However, the smaller diameter prosthetic grafts (<6 mm) have low patency and often result in complications from infection. Tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) are a promising replacement for small diameter prosthetic...
