Abstract
Abstract Tissue engineering is a field of bioengineering that merges fundamentals of medicine, engineering, biological science, and materials science to research and produce replacement tissues or organs. In this article, the basics of tissue engineering are discussed, including the different types of cells and matrices researched and how these components are used separately or together for tissue‐engineering applications. After the principles of tissue engineering are described, the role of tissue engineering in medicine is explored with separate discussions on dermal wound treatment, orthopedics, sports medicine, plastic and reconstructive surgery, neurology, and cardiology. Then, the current status of tissue engineering is investigated, from market products to advanced research and manufacturing applications. The article concludes with an exploration of scientific, regulatory, and commercial challenges that must be overcome in order to advance the field of tissue engineering.
