<p class="jove_content">This article explains a new animal model designed for testing suburethral graft materials. In this model, a mesh tape is implanted through a vaginal incision in ewes, and the animals are observed over a three-month period. This model is essential as it lays the foundation for experimental research on grafts.</p>

A Novel Surgical Technique in a Sheep Model for Suburethral Graft Implantation

Suburethral polypropylene mesh tapes for women were initially introduced into clinical practice for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence without ...

<p class="jove_content">This manuscript describes the production, characterization and potential uses of a tissue engineered 3D esophageal construct prepared from normal primary human esophageal fibroblast and squamous epithelial cells seeded within a de-cellularized porcine scaffold. The results demonstrate the formation of a mature stratified epithelium similar to the normal human esophagus.</p>
