In vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo effects of a decellularized xenogeneic collagen scaffold in nasal cartilage repair.

Tissue engineering is considered a promising future option for nasal cartilage repair. However, until now, an optimal material has not been identified for this specific purpose. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze a recently developed decellularized collagen matrix, which has promising material properties for septal cartilage repair.
