Current Use of Biological Scaffolds in Plastic Surgery

Properly designed biodegradable scaffolds facilitate repair or regeneration of stromal tissues. Over the last 50 years, a variety of synthetic, semi-synthetic and decellularized scaffolds have been developed that provide surgeons with tools to reconstruct a wide array of structural defects. We reviewed the literature of biological degradable scaffolds in current clinical use in the US and highlight their design principles as well as products in common use. Host tissues populate scaffolds with inflammatory cells, fibroblasts, blood vessels, nerves and lymphatics. Cells lay down extracellular matrix macromolecules while enzymes degrade the scaffold. Over time the scaffold can be totally replaced by host tissues. The greatest use of scaffolds in plastic surgery is in skin replacement, breast reconstruction, abdominal wall reconstruction and peripheral nerve repair. Other areas of importance are cartilage and bone replacement as well as support for lining replacements such bowel, bladder, mucosa and dura. The wide range of research being done in this field is likely to provide surgeons with more choices and improved materials to repair and regenerate stromal structures.
