Abstract: A block-shaped scaffold for a tissue engineering with improved shape stability and less volume change in water is produce by the steps of approximate-uniformly mixing the particle-shaped material having 100 to 2000 ?m diameter with a solution, where a biodegradable polymer is dissolved with an organic solvent, freezing, drying it to remove the solvent, pulverizing thus obtained intermediate product, dissolving it with a liquid, where the biodegradable polymer is not dissolved, to remove the particle-shaped material taking thus obtained intermediate product into a mold, and pressing and heating it, the scaffold having ununiform and continuous holes occupying 20 to 80% in a cross-section area in a three-dimensional network structure having a small hole structure with 5 to 50 ?m diameter, elastic coefficient being 0.1 to 2.5 MPa, and volume change being 95 to 105% when dipping it in water for 24 hours.
