DECELLULARIZED BIOLOGICALLY-ENGINEERED TUBULAR GRAFTS
This disclosure describes decellularized, biologically-engineered tubular grafts and methods of making and using such decellularized, biologically-engineered tubular grafts.
LYOPHILIZED PERFORATED PLACENTAL MEMBRANE TISSUE GRAFTS
A dehydrated, partially perforated, placental tissue allograft that can be used in the treatment of wounds. Specifically, the dehydrated, partially perforated placental allograft has the property of being able to be cleaned during processing without disrupting the grafts structural integrity or decreasing the concentration of growth factors found within the finished graft. The dehydrated, partially perforated, placental tissue allograft is reconstituted prior to applying it to the subject and is substantially free of undesirable maternal blood contaminants.
Biological prosthesis and methods of production and use
Products, processes, compositions, kits, and methods are provided for cartilage-derived implants. The implants can exhibit resistance to enzyme (e.g., collagenase, protease, etc.) digestion compared to the source tissue from which they were derived while still having one or more mechanical properties comparable to the source tissue from which they were derived. The implants can also have a plurality of molecular bridges between molecules of the cartilaginous material. The molecular bridges can connect one or more collagen fibrils and/or/with one or more glycosaminoglycans. The implants can also be treated with cationic detergent, packaged and sterilized with or without additional components, and surgically implanted into subjects.
DEMINERALIZED BONE FIBER IMPLANT COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR ROTATOR CUFF AND ACL REPAIR
A composition and methods of making or use thereof include a plurality of fibers forming a shape for augmenting tendon to bone repair. The physical presence of the plurality of fibers provides initial fixation, while the use of an osteoinductive material provides long term enhancement of bone formation around the site of the tendon to bone repair.
Method and device for in vivo tissue regeneration on the interior surface of hollow organs
Aspects of the disclosure relate methods and a synthetic cell delivery device for treating trauma present relative to the inner surface of a hollow organ such as an esophagus.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR IN VIVO BRONCHUS REGENERATION
Aspects of the disclosure relate methods and synthetic scaffolds for regenerating hollow tubular organs present in the respiratory system such as bronchus tissue.
SEALING OF DECELLULARIZED AND RECELLULARIZED ENGINEERED ORGAN GRAFTS
The disclosure provides for methods of sealing of decellularized and recellularized engineered organ grafts, thereby providing a reinforced (fortified) decellularized and recellularized engineered organ graft.
CROSSLINKED SOFT TISSUE GRAFT AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The invention relates to crosslinked soft tissue grafts and methods of use thereof. The invention also relates to methods of preparing the same.
Molded placental tissue compositions and methods of making and using the same
Described herein are molded dehydrated placental tissue compositions, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. The compositions have numerous medical applications. Methods for making and using the molded dehydrated placental tissue compositions are also described herein.
Thin-film micromesh medical devices and related methods
Thin-film mesh for medical devices, including stent and scaffold devices, and related methods are provided. Micropatterned thin-film mesh, such as thin-film Nitinol (TFN) mesh, may be fabricated via sputter deposition on a micropatterned wafer. The thin-film mesh may include slits to be expanded into pores, and the expanded thin-film mesh used as a cover for a stent device. The stent device may include two stent modules that may be implanted at a bifurcated aneurysm such that one module passes through a medial surface of the other module. The thin-film mesh may include pores with complex, fractal, or fractal-like shapes. The thin-film mesh may be used as a scaffold for a scaffold device. The thin-film scaffold may be placed in a solution including structural protein such as fibrin, seeded with cells, and placed in the body to replace or repair tissue.
