The present invention provides a composition comprising fetal cartilage tissue-derived cells and a fetal cartilage tissue-derived extracellular matrix as active ingredients for regenerating a growth plate. The composition for regenerating a growth plate can inhibit bone bridge formation in a growth plate injury region without a scaffold and differentiate to a growth plate cartilage tissue to effectively fill and regenerate the injured region therewith, whereby the regenerated growth plate tissue can recover growth ability. In addition, the composition is compatible with and safe to biological tissues and is characterized by high reproducibility and homogeneity.

The disclosure relates to compositions comprising crosslinked hyaluronic acid physically mixed with collagen. Also contemplated are methods of improving an aesthetic quality of an anatomic feature of a human being.

The present invention relates to a medical composition and a method for preparing the same, the medical composition comprising: an adipose tissue-derived extracellular matrix powder; and a biocompatible polymer or a crosslinked product of the biocompatible polymer. The medical composition according to the present invention exists in a well-aggregated state even after implantation in the body and can maintain the volume thereof for a certain time.

A method for fabricating a collagen bio-ink includes steps as follows. A first component is provided, wherein the first component is to fill a collagen powder to a first syringe. A second component is provided, wherein the second component is to fill a neutral solution or an acid solution to a second syringe. A mixing step is performed, wherein the first syringe is connected to the second syringe with a Lure lock connector and pushing back and forth to mix the first component and the second component to form a hydrogel and become a collagen bio-ink.

Implantable medical constructs formed by winding using winding support structures that can be flexible and can be integrated into the medical construct with biocompatible fiber(s) and/or yarn(s) and at least one continuous length collagen fiber. The implantable medical construct can include open suture anchor apertures formed using posts during a winding sequence.

There is provided a method for preparing a dense hydrogel comprising an at least partially gelled hydrogel, placing the at least partially gelled hydrogel in fluid communication with an end of a capillary, and driving the at least partially gelled hydrogel into the capillary to form a dense hydrogel. There is also provided a system for preparing the dense hydrogel comprising a capillary having a bore; and a driver in communication with an end of the capillary for driving an at least partially gelled hydrogel into the bore of the capillary to form a dense hydrogel.

An alloprosthetic composite implant comprising includes a structural porous scaffold having a pore density profile corresponding to a density profile of bone to be replaced. A plurality of cells are seeded within pores of the porous scaffold and grown by incubation. The cells may include osteoblasts and/or stem cells to form the structure of the implant, and one or more cartilage layers may be grown on top of the scaffold. The pore density profile of the scaffold may be formed based on one or both of the bone density profile of the bone to be removed, and the bone density profile of the native bone that will be in contact with the alloprosthetic implant. A robot may be employed reo resect the native bone and also to shape the alloprosthetic implant to fit into place in the native bone.
