Evaluation of an engineered vascular graft exhibiting somatic growth in lambs to model repair of absent pulmonary artery branch
This study supports the use of these regenerative grafts with somatic growth capacity for clinical trial in patients born with a unilateral absent pulmonary artery branch, and it shows their potential for improving development of the downstream pulmonary vasculature.
