Abstract
Tissue engineering is a technique for regenerating living tissue using portions of the patient's tissue, which are dissociated into cells and cultured on biological or synthetic supports before being transferred to the patient. In this context, the present study seeks to develop implant models (scaffolds) for replacing trabecular bone tissue, with requirements such as porosity and interconnected pores. All design development was aimed at the manufacturing of scaffolds using the material extrusio [...]
