SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Esprit BTK (Abbott Vascular), an everolimus-eluting resorbable scaffold, is safe and effective in the treatment of infrapopliteal chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) compared ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed a cell-free bioactive material comprising a complex network of molecular components that work together as a scaffold to mimic cartilage’s natural ...

The menisci are semi-lunar wedge-shaped fibrocartilaginous structures which act as shock absorbers, spreading the load on the articular surfaces of the knee. The menisci can be damaged (often a tear) ...

I am continually perplexed by the questions that arise concerning platforms and planks. It appears that it starts with a misunderstanding of what constitutes a platform. For some, a platform is any ...

There was a lack of effective, cell-free biomaterials for bladder tissue regeneration that could reliably restore function without the complexities and risks of cell-seeded scaffolds. The breakthrough ...

Current evidence on partial replacement of the meniscus of the knee using a biodegradable scaffold raises no major safety concerns. Evidence for any advantage of the procedure over standard surgery, ...
