Abstract

The present histologic analysis suggests that ADMs used in SCR undergo active recellularization, revascularization, and remodeling as early as 6 months after implantation, and that graft recellularization positively correlates with duration of implantation. These results represent a significant advancement in our knowledge regarding biologic incorporation of ADMs used in SCR.
