Problems solved by technology

In addition, the previous nerve guides can only repair nerve fiber defects within 3cm, because longer repairs take longer, and the distal effectors lose their innervation for too long, resulting in the inability to restore the corresponding function

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing nerve conduits based on three-dimension printing of multiple types of cells. The method comprises the following steps: a high-molecular material is used for producing filaments, the filaments are assembled into braided lines, and the braided lines are produced into tubular external layered braided supports and internal braided supports of nerve conduits; a normal pressure plasma is used for carrying out surface treatment for the tubular external layered braided supports and internal braided supports; multiple types of cells are obtained, each type of cell is respectively dissolved into biological solvents in order to produce biological ink, and the ink is placed into different printing ink cartridges; biological printing parameters are adjusted, the biological ink is printed on external surfaces of the braiding type tubular internal and external layered biological supports; the tubular external layered braided supports and the internal braided supports are assembled, and high-molecular glue is used for carrying out adhesion and fixation of two ends of nerve conduits. The method has the following characteristics and beneficial effects: the nerve conduits employ the high-molecular degradable material as the material, the material is easily available, and the material has certain strength and good biological compatibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manufacturing method of a nerve guide, in particular to a nerve guide based on multi-type cell 3D printing and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Nerve fiber defects are often caused by direct or indirect damage to the nerve fibers of patients due to trauma, extrusion, surgery and other reasons. Typical findings include movement disturbances, sensory disturbances, and autonomic dysfunction. The repair of nerve fibers after injury is related to many factors, but there are many problems such as long time and poor prognosis. Even the damage, rupture and defect of some nerve fibers cannot be repaired at all, and severe cases will lead to permanent disability. Therefore, the regeneration and functional recovery of nerve fibers after injury has always been a hot topic in the field of neuroscience. At present, autologous nerve transplantation is the gold standard for nerve fiber damage, and it is a class...
