Cover Story: Despite the great advances that the tissue engineering field has experienced over the last decades, the amount of engineered tissues that have reached a stage of clinical trial is limited. The lack of vascularization represents a main impediment to this end. Bioprinting appears as an excellent technique for the fabrication of vascular templates that will develop in vitro together with the target tissue. This review provides a comprehensive background to the fields of vascularization and bioprinting, providing details on cell sources, materials and strategies. View this paper.
