The graft showed morphologic evidence of good in situ cellularization, satisfactory durability to withstand arterial pressure for 12 postoperative months, and the potential to acquire physiologic vasomotor responsiveness. These results suggest that our tissue-engineered vascular graft shows promise as an arterial conduit prosthesis.
