An engineered trachea with an absorbable scaffold should be used to augment the repair of a stenotic tracheal section in infants and children because this type of engineered airway structure can grow as the child grows. Our strategy for relief of tracheal stenosis is tracheoplasty by engineered cartilage implantation in accordance with the concept of costal cartilage grafting to enlarge the lumen. This study investigated the mechanical properties of regenerative cartilage with a biodegradable scaffold, Neoveil®, to aid in design of a composite scaffold that maintained semi-rigid properties until cartilage could be generated.
