Perfusion-decellularized matrix: using nature's platform to engineer a bioartificial heart

Article Abstract:

A new approach for the development of a bioartificial heart by using a perfusion-decellularized matrix is examined. Results show that the decellularized hearts presents a perusable vascular architecture and intact chamber geometry on coronary perfusion.
