Coordinating Committee for Continuing Education in Thoracic Surgery (CCCETS) Basic Science Lecture, presented at the Thirty-fourth Postgraduate Program of The Society of Thoracic Surgeons, New Orleans, LA, Jan 28, 2001.
Tissue engineering has emerged as a rapidly expanding approach to address the organ shortage problem. It is an "interdisciplinary field that applies the principles and methods of engineering and the life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that can restore, maintain, or improve tissue function." Much progress has been made in the tissue engineering of structures relevant to cardiothoracic surgery, including heart valves, blood vessels, myocardium, esophagus, and trachea.
