In vivo efficacy of 3D-printed elastin-gelatin-hyaluronic acid scaffolds for regeneration of nasal septal cartilage defects

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B Applied Biomaterials 2022 Volume 110, Issue 3, Pages 614-624

Nasal septal cartilage perforations occur due to the different pathologies. Limited healing ability of cartilage results in remaining defects and further complications. This study sought to assess the efficacy of elastin-gelatin-hyaluronic acid (EGH) scaffolds for regeneration of nasal septal cartilage defects in rabbits. Defects (4 × 7 mm) were created in the nasal septal cartilage of 24 New Zealand rabbits. They were randomly divided into four groups: Group 1 was the control group with no further intervention, Group 2 received EGH scaffolds implanted in the defects, Group 3 received EGH scaffolds seeded with autologous auricular chondrocytes implanted in the defects, and Group 4…
