Table 4.

Urinary bladder reconstruction in patients.

Scaffold Type Unseeded/Seeded Patients’ Age Results Reference
Plastic mold Unseeded 38–64 years No tissue regeneration. Contracted bladder. [123]
Plastic mold Unseeded 65 years Complete urothelium formation, no muscle formation. [124]
Plastic mold Unseeded Not reported Complete urothelium formation, no muscle formation. [125]
Gelatin sponge Unseeded Not reported Decrease in bladder capacity, urinary incontinence, vesicoureteral reflux. [127]
Gelatin sponge + nobecutane Unseeded 15–46 years Hydroureteronephrosis urinary leakage. [128]
Japanese paper + nobecutane Unseeded 19–52 years Regeneration of urothelium and muscle. Normal bladder capacity and micturition in patients with tuberculous contracted bladders and not effective in patients with interstitial cystitis. [129]
Lyophilized dura Unseeded 9–51 years Complete regeneration of urothelium, but week smooth muscle. No complications. [133]
Bovine pericardium Unseeded 67 years No complications. [132]
SIS Unseeded 8–17 years Complete urothelium regeneration and partial smooth muscle regeneration. No complications. [131]
Decellularized bladder submucosa and composite scaffold made of collagen and PGA Seeded with UCs and SMCs and wrapped in omentum 4–19 years Urothelium and smooth muscle regeneration. Decrease in leaking point pressure and increasing of volume and compliance. No calculi. [34]
PGA/PLA Seeded with UCs and SMCs 3–16 years No improvement in bladder capacity. Bladder rupture occurred. [122]
