The problem with various grafts and prosthesis is that the body starts reacting to them, either through restenosis, or complement activation, or thrombosis. This patent teaches unique ways to generate grafts and prosthetics through the implantation of stem cells and/or other cellular components in the structure to be introduced into the body.
