Cartilage tissue engineering combining microspheroid building blocks and microneedle arrays.
Conclusions: We constructed defined scaffold-free shapes by bioprinting and fusing microspheroids. Proof of concept was shown in the repair of ex vivo osteoarthritic human cartilage and in vivo rabbit osteochondral (OC) defects.
