Abstract
As the next step in the translation of vascular tissue engineering, this study uniquely combines transcatheter delivery and in situ tissue regeneration using a novel bioresorbable electrospun polymer graft that can be implanted minimally invasively. Once delivered inside a small-diameter vessel, the electrospun microstructure supports the vessel wall, facilitates cellular infiltration, and guides organized tissue formation.
