Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a three-dimensionally (e.g., 3D) printed, surgically implantable tissue engineering scaffolds for promoting bone, vascular, and/or cartilage regeneration at osteochondral regions and a method for manufacturing the 3D printed surgically implantable tissue engineering scaffold. The 3D printed surgically implantable tissue engineering scaffold may be fabricated at least in part from a thermoplastic polyurethane (e.g., nTPU) composite via a rapid prototyping machine. In some cases, the three-dimensional shape of the fabricated tissue engineering scaffold may correspond to a three-dimensional shape of a tissue defect of a patient.
