Objective:
To review the application of electrospinning in preparation of tendon tissue engineered scaffolds, to describe its application effect and prospects.
Methods:
Recent literature was extensively reviewed and summarized from various aspects, concerning the application of electrospinning in preparing tendon tissue engineered scaffolds.
Results:
Because of its huge surface and high porosity, the electrospun fibers prepared by electrospinning technology have been widely used in the manufacture of tendon tissue engineered scaffolds in recent years. A variety of materials, including polylactic acid, have been successfully electrospun into various types of tendon tissue engineered scaffolds, and good results in the repair of tendon defect were achieved.
Conclusion:
The electrospinning technology has provide a new way for the preparation of the tendon tissue engineered scaffolds, with the perfection of the technology they will have broad application prospects in the field of tendon tissue engineering.
