Part of the book series: New Techniques in Surgery Series ((NEWTECHN,volume 7))

Tissue substitutes for reconstructive procedures of the urinary tract are required in a variety of acquired and congenital pediatric and adult urological diseases. In the era of rapid growth of tissue engineering and stem cell research and clinical use, the tissue expansion field has fallen behind in the search for viable substitutes in the urologic field. This chapter shows the research and clinical work on tissue expansion in the search of urinary tissue employed in urine conduction and storage.
