Introduction Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a cerebrovascular disease characterised by progressive steno-occlusion of the terminal part of the internal carotid arteries, causing a decline in cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) distal to the steno-occlusion lesion. ...
Its superelasticity makes Nitinol the only material suitable for stents in the neck and carotid arteries or legs. In these vulnerable locations, a blow to the stent area will cause it to deform, but the Nitinol stent will return to its intended shape. ...
In this study, we investigated the possibility of direct injection of vascular cells within decellularised porcine carotid arteries through the use of micro–needles inserted into the medial layer prior to decellularisation. The results indicate that these injection methods are feasible and provide a method for quickly bulk cell seeding decellularised ...
