A bioprosthetic ovary created using 3D printed microporous scaffolds restores ovarian function in sterilized mice
There is a clinical need to develop a bioengineering system to support ovary transplantation. Here, the authors generate a bioprosthetic ovary using 3D printed scaffolds of varying pore architectures to support follicle survival and ovarian function in sterilized mice.
