pubmed:abstractText
A major limitation of currently available bioprosthetic valves is their propensity to calcify. At present, one approach in tissue-engineering, uses decellularized, xenogenic scaffolds that are implanted, with the expectation of complete matrix repopulation in vivo. Whether or not such a decellularized matrix will be sufficiently endowed to prevent calcification is unknown.
