A tissue engineering approach for repairing craniofacial volumetric muscle loss in a sheep following a 2, 4, and 6-month recovery.

Volumetric muscle loss (VML) is the loss of skeletal muscle that results in significant and persistent impairment of function. The unique characteristics of craniofacial muscle compared trunk and limb skeletal muscle, including differences in gene expression, satellite cell phenotype, and regenerati...
