title: Bioengineering the Uterus: An Overview of Recent Advances and Future Perspectives in Reproductive Medicine.
abstract: Since the initial in vitro attempts to more complex models, research on uterine regeneration is moving towards the creation of a functional bioengineered uterus with possible clinical applications. We describe here the most relevant advances in bioengineering of the uterus published in the last decades considering the use of stem cells and biomaterials as well as future developing techniques in Regenerative Medicine.
