Organizational project is related to as an interdisciplinary fields, the basic principle of integrated application engineering science and life science
A series of mixing together of subjects such as clinical medicine, biomaterial, cell biology, bioengineering, purpose are mainly ground
Exploitation is studied carefully for repairing, and is maintained, or improve the substitute with physiological function of human body disease damage tissue.There are a large amount of pipes in human body
Tissue or organ such as blood vessel, tracheae, esophagus, enteron aisle, urethra of shape structure etc. rise in maintaining human normal physiological activity
Important role is arrived, the lesion of these tubular tissues, which will lead to, greatly injures even death to human body.In global range, the heart
Vascular diseases are to cause dead one of principal element, are only second to cancer.The cause of disease is mainly since coronary artery blockage causes blood
It flows unsmooth, causes cardiac muscular tissue's nutrition supply insufficient and myocardial infarction occurs.Tracheae, oesophagus because the factors such as tumour, physics and chemistry cause it is narrow
Narrow influence tracheae function and must not all right trachea resection rebuild, surgical resection therapy exist transfinite excision after direct anastomosis difficult etc.
Problem.It is therefore current that clinically there is an urgent need to a large amount of tubular brackets to carry out coronary bypass hand as artificial blood vessel
Art and artificial trachea or artificial esophagus carry out the substitution of defect and coincide.
Ideal tubular tissue engineering rack should have the micro of suitable cell Growth and Differentiation;With it is open,
Interconnected microcellular structure, to promote the release of cytotrophy substance diffusion and metabolite;With suitable mechanical strength
And airtightness, to substitute physiological function necessary to tubular tissue;With controllable biological degradability, it is desirable that degradation rate and
The rate of regeneration matches, and biological support is gradually degraded finally to be metabolized and be excreted while regeneration.However mesh
Before can really be applied in clinical artificial tubular graft, the overwhelming majority be all using terylene, silica gel, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) this
Class inert polymer material mainly prepares tubular structure by fibrage method.But this kind of graft lacks biology and lives

There are outer dimension corresponding with disease damage model and porous structure, is applied well in terms of orthopaedics and plastic surgery.But
It is to have the particular/special requirement of thin-walled porous structure due to tubular bracket, and the forming principle of piling up of 3D printing needs it using branch
Support structure causes the 3D printing method for being difficult with extrusion molding directly to prepare tubular bracket.
Generally speaking, human body pipe tissue defect and reparation are in great demand, and existing artificial tubular graft is big
Mostly inertia long-term substitute lacks bioactivity.Material and rack forming method are that two of tubular bracket preparation are critical to
Element, there is also very big defects on printing thin-walled porous tubular scaffolds at present for 3D printing technique.

Graft, but compared compared with arterial grafts such as internal mammary artery, radial arterys, the long-term patency rate of vein grafts is lower, main former
Because being implanted into early stage thrombosis, middle and later periods endometrial hyperplasia and atherosclerosis plaque forming.Which has limited the clinical applications of vein plant.
Clinical at present there are many methods for preventing vein graft restenosis, such as use anticoagulant, antiplatelet drug, statins
Object obtains vein etc. using no-touch technology in art.It is worth noting that, researcher is constantly exploring in the past few decades
With the clinical application of research External stent.Originally, External stent is intended to limit phlebectasia, maintains vein graft and target blood
The internal diameter consistency of pipe stablizes haemodynamics, reduces turbulent flow, antithrombotic.Then studies have found that, using blood vessel outside
Bracket not only can be with antithrombotic, and can reduce vein graft endometrial hyperplasia, improves long-term patency rate, so that propping up outside blood vessel
Frame is used widely and is developed.Material for making bracket constantly develops into metal material, life from early stage Teflon fiber
Biodegradable high molecular material.But External stent has no breakthrough in recent years, or even has research to claim External stent
Remarkable effect is had no in terms of preventing vein graft restenosis, this undoubtedly limits the clinical application of External stent.Thunder pa is mould
Element is macrolide antibiotics, can inhibit vascellum endometrial hyperplasia by combining mTOR receptor to inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation, prevent
Only restenosis of vein.Aspirin is non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug, by inactivating Cycloxygenase, inhibits platelet aggregation, is to face
The most common antiplatelet drug of bed.We have made a kind of biodegradable blood of PCL- rapamycin using 3D printing technique
Pipe support arm, wraps vein grafts using support arm, discharges drug by scaffold degradation, reaches and inhibit vascellum endometrial hyperplasia
Purpose;It in conjunction with the mechanical support that timbering material provides, prevents vein from distorting, stablizes haemodynamics, reduce turbulent flow, reaching prevents
The purpose of vein graft restenosis.

3. result and analysis
The control of the form and microstructure of 3.1 PCL control brackets
The macroscopic form of tubular bracket and rotating device matching are good it can be seen from Figure 11 a-i.By this method
The tubular bracket of different-diameter can easily be obtained.Using the reception device of anisotropic approach, it is uniform pattern can be quickly obtained
Various anisotropic tubular brackets, interface includes triangle, hexagon etc..It can be seen that the reason of bracket printing by Figure 12 a-g
By model and forming process, the fiber of extrusion is interlaced with one another to form reticular structure.With the increase of revolving speed, the braiding of fiber mesh
Density increases.It is as follows according to the theoretical parameter for calculating corresponding construction according to model:
By Figure 13 a-d it is found that spiral spacing (S), fiber spacing (L), fibre diameter (Df) and 2 θ of fiber interweaving angle with
The revolving speed (n) of reception device is inversely proportional, and the structural parameters and theoretical curve height of experiment sample are fitted, and has good controllability
And reproducibility.
3.2 PCL tubular brackets are used for thin vessels housing
As shown in Figure 14, the extravascular cuffs bracket that PCL tubular bracket can be used for after vein transplantation.Bracket has good soft
Property, show the matching with blood vessel.As shown in Figure 15, support arm can prevent limitation phlebectasia, maintain vein graft and
The internal diameter consistency of target vessel stablizes haemodynamics, reduces turbulent flow, antithrombotic.Not only may be used using External stent
With antithrombotic, and vein graft endometrial hyperplasia can be reduced, improve long-term patency rate.
4. conclusion
The present embodiment provides a kind of preparation method of 4 axis 3D printing tubular medical brackets, which can load a variety of anti-
The drug of solidifying, antiplatelet and anti-endometrial hyperplasia.Bracket can regulate and control its macroscopic form and microstructure, and it is personalized fixed to show
The advantage of system.As support arm, mechanics mismatch is brought after stable reticular structure can effectively prevent vein transplantation
Blood vessel dilatation, the combined treatment of carrying medicament can prevent endometrial hyperplasia, stablize blood flow, maintain unimpeded rate at a specified future date.
