English abstract:
This study provides long term results of a novel, degradable, small diameter vascular graft in a rat model. The Degradable polycarbonate urethane (dPCU) exhibits appropriate biomechanical properties and improved biocompatibility with reduced secondary inflammation. dPCU conduits promoted rapid complete endothelialisation, increased and sustained transmural cellular ingrowth, proliferation of cells and microvessel formation with minimal inflammatory response.
