Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Urology
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Artificial bladders require urine storage, complete voiding, and renal preservation.
  • Biocompatibility, resistance to encrustation, and infection tolerance are crucial.
  • Previous solutions often failed to progress beyond initial experimental data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review 'proof of principle' for alloplastic prosthetic bladders.
  • To examine alloplast types and design concepts.
  • To discuss recent advancements in tissue engineering for bladder reconstruction.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of alloplastic bladder research.
  • Analysis of tissue engineering strategies for bladder substitutes.
  • Evaluation of design concepts and material properties.
