Mechanical Characterisation of Porcine Urethra: Non Linear Constitutive Models and Experimental Approach

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Stefania Maria Aliki Konstantinidi, Amine Benouhiba, Quentin Philippe Mario De Menech

Low urinary tract dysfunctions and symptoms (LUTS) and Urinary incontinence (UI) in particular is a medical condition that affects millions of people worldwide. One of the most promising long term treatments for this condition is the use of an artificial u ...

3D laser shock peening as a way to improve geometrical accuracy in selective laser melting

Roland Logé, Nikola Kalentics

One of the major drawbacks of selective laser melting (SLM) is the accumulation of tensile residual stresses (TRS) in the surface and subsurface zones of produced parts which can lead to cracking, delamination, geometrical distortions, and a decrease in fa ...

Impedance pumping as a non-invasive treatment for underactive bladder? An ex-vivo proof-of-concept-study in porcine bladders

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Francesco Clavica

In patients suffering from underactive bladder (UAB), the contraction of the detrusor muscle has insufficient strength or duration to ensure efficient bladder emptying. Although catheterisation is currently the most effective method to empty the bladder, i ...

Bio-engineered collagen-fibrin scaffolds for enhancing urological tissue regeneration

Elif Vardar

Urological tissue engineering offers alternative solutions for congenital and acquired diseases of the urinary tract, which may require reconstructive surgery. It evolves to overcome complications, which might be encountered after surgery. Therefore, tissu ...

Is There a Need for Smooth Muscle Cell Transplantation in Urethral Reconstruction?

Peter Frey

Background: Hypospadias and urethral strictures are conditions requiring additional tissue for reconstruction. Due to a limited source of tissue, autologous skin and oral mucosa are frequently used. However, long-term follow-up studies demonstrated signifi ...

In-vivo performance of high-density collagen gel tubes for urethral regeneration in a rabbit model

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey

Congenital malformations or injuries of the urethra can be treated using existing autologous tissue, but these procedures are sometimes associated with severe complications. Therefore, tissue engineering may be advantageous for generating urethral grafts. ...

Engineered insulin-like growth factor-1 for improved smooth muscle regeneration

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been shown to induce potent mitogenic responses in various cell types, yet its sustained local delivery is still an underdeveloped domain in the clinic. We report here an engineered IGF-1 that facilitates extended l ...

Compressed collagen gel: a novel scaffold for human bladder cells

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Florian Maria Wurm, Peter Frey

Collagen is highly conserved across species and has been used extensively for tissue regeneration; however, its mechanical properties are limited. A recent advance using plastic compression of collagen gels to achieve much higher concentrations significant ...
