Hepatotrophic factors in the portal blood are critically important for the survival of heterotopically transplanted hepatocytes. Currently, no model exists for the implantation of hepatocytes on biodegradable polymer scaffolds with direct access to the portal blood. This study investigates the use of small intestinal submucosa (SIS) as a small-caliber venous conduit that may be used for the implantation of tissue-engineered liver.
