Doctors and a tech company have successfully teamed up to implant a 3D printed ear onto a patient for the first time. The patient was a 20-year-old woman with microtia, a condition in which a ...

A 20-year-old woman who was born with a small and misshapen right ear has received a 3D printed ear implant made from her own cells, the manufacturer announced on Thursday.

If we could 3D print new custom body par/ts to suit the individual, it would solve a lot of problems. A new ear implant pioneered by 3DBio Therapeutics has achieved just that. Grown To Order ...

The trial consists of 11 people, ages 6-25, that have microtia, which leads to underdeveloped or missing outer ears. The company aims for a future goal of 3D-printing other human tissue like noses ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell Engineering have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and ...

This is why 3DBio Therapeutics successfully grafting a 3D-printed ear – an implant it calls "AuriNovo" — onto a patient is kind of a big deal. But there's more to it than that.

Once 3DBio had its hands on billions of cells, it mixed the cells with a sterile, collagen-based “bio-ink” to create the material that would ultimately be used to 3D print Alexa’s new ear.

A first-of-its-kind ear reconstruction that used a 3D-printed ear made from human cells could be a game-changer for regenerative medicine, doctors say.

Spector’s team used 3D printing to create an anatomically accurate template of a human ear from polylactic acid bioink, a biocompatible and biodegradable plastic commonly used for medical implants.

How to 3D-print a human ear Here's the basic rundown of how the research team developed the natural cell-grown ear implant, which it dubs AuriNovo, and carried out the operation in March of this year.

Doctors have successfully transplanted a 3D-printed ear made from human cells onto the face of a 20-year-old woman who was born with a misshapen ear, a notable breakthrough in tissue engineering ...
