Effective restoration of extensive tracheal damage arising from cancer, stenosis, infection or
congenital abnormalities remains an unmet clinical need in respiratory medicine. The …

Respiratory diseases are a major reason for death in both men and women worldwide. The
development of therapies for these diseases has been slow and the lack of relevant human …

Various treatment methods for tracheal defects have been attempted, such as artificial
implants, allografts, autogenous grafts, and tissue engineering; however, no perfect method …

Breathing involves fluid-solid interactions in the lung; however, the lack of experimental data
inhibits combining the mechanics of air flow to airway deformation, challenging the …

Background Common respiratory illnesses, such as emphysema and chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, are characterized by connective tissue damage and remodeling. Two …

Surgical reconstruction of extensive tracheal lesions is challenging. It requires a
mechanically stable, biocompatible, and nontoxic material that gradually degrades. One of …

The aim of this work was to develop a dense lamellar scaffold, as a biomimetic material with
potential applications in the regeneration of tracheal tissue after surgical tumor resection …

Airway surgery poses a host of unique challenges to both the surgical and anesthesiology
teams. Accordingly, there are a variety of surgical, anesthetic, and airway management …

Clinical lung transplantation has rapidly established itself as the gold standard of treatment
for end‐stage lung diseases in a restricted group of patients since the first successful lung …

Purpose This paper aims to discuss the successful fabrication of customized tubular
scaffolds for tracheal tissue engineering with a novel route using solvent-based extrusion 3D …
