Formation of tissue-engineered human auricular cartilage via tissue engineering technique for future use in ear surgery

L Saim et al. Med J Malaysia. 2004 May.

Abstract

To date there is no optimal approach to reconstruct an external ear. However, advances in tissue engineering technologies have indicated that in vitro autologous elastic cartilage might be of great importance in the future treatment of these patients. The aim of this study was to observe monolayer expansion of auricular cartilage and to evaluate engineered cartilage using standard histochemical study.
