## Abstract Bladder cancers requiring radical cystectomy, along with congenital and acquired disorders which result in obstruction of the bladder, necessitate surgical measures (including augmentation); such diagnoses bring a clinical need for effective bladder replacement implant designs. Many rec

## Abstract The repair of tissue defects remains a challenging clinical problem. Extruded collagen fibers comprise a promising scaffold for anterior cruciate ligament and tendon reconstruction; however the engineering of these fibers has still to be improved to bring this material to clinical pract
At present there is a strong need for suitable scaffolds that meet the requirements for bone tissue engineering applications. The objective of this study was to investigate the suitability of porous scaffolds based on a hydroxyl functionalized polymer, poly(hydroxymethylglycolide-co-Ξ΅-caprolactone)
