  • Devices and Methods for Nerve Regeneration
    Publication number: 20240091409
    Abstract: A nerve regeneration device comprising a bioresorbable conduit and a matrix contained therein having elongate pores aligned with the longitudinal axis of the conduit. The matrix comprises collagen, fibronectin, laminin-1, and laminin-2, wherein the amount, by weight, of laminin-1 or laminin-2 is greater than the amount of fibronectin in the matrix.
    Type: Application

  • Devices and Methods for Nerve Regeneration
    Publication number: 20210015968
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a nerve regeneration conduit including a resorbable tube having a matrix therein. The matrix is characterized by substantially parallel, axially aligned pores extending the length of the matrix. The matrix is formed by the axial freezing of a slurry having little or no significant radial thermal gradient during the freezing process. The matrix is used to bridge the gap between the severed ends of a nerve and provide a scaffold for nerve regeneration.
