Nasal cartilage serves a crucial structural function for the nose, where rebuilding the cartilaginous framework is an essential aspect of nasal reconstruction. Conventional methods of nasal reconstruction rely on autologous cartilage harvested from patients, which contributes to donor site pain and the potential for site-specific complications. Some patients are not ideal candidates for this procedure due to a lack of adequate substitute cartilage due to age-related calcification, differences in tissue quality, or due to prior surgeries. Tissue engineering, combined with three-dimensional printing technologies, has emerged as a promising method of generating biomimetic tissues to circumvent these issues to restore normal function and aesthetics. We conducted a comprehensive literature review to examine the applications of three-dimensional printing in conjunction with tissue engineering for the generation of nasal cartilage grafts. This review aims to compare various approaches and discuss critical considerations in the design of these grafts.
Impact Statement
The main goal of this review is to summarize the current state of tissue engineering applications that use three-dimensional printing technologies to create nasal cartilage grafts, while providing contextual background on the principles of nasal reconstruction.
