Congenital Heart Defects in Adulthood [PDF]

Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2011
More than 90% of children with congenital heart defects now survive into adulthood; just a few decades ago, survival was rare, particularly among patients with complex defects. The new population of adults with congenital heart disease presents a special challenge to physicians from all of the involved specialties.Selective literature review.A complete

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...
