Composite tracheal grafts (CTG) combining decellularized scaffolds with external biomaterial support have been shown to support host-derived neotissue formation. In this study, we examine the biocompatibility, graft epithelialization, vascularization, and patency of three prototype CTG using a mouse microsurgical model.
