<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an artificial organ utilizing tissue formed on the surface of an artificial object embedded in a living body which keeps the formed connective tissue highly independent, anastomosable, and antithrombogenicity. <P>SOLUTION: An outer hull member 2 is formed on the surface of a rodlike structure member 1 to form the base material for forming the connective tissue. By embedding the base material in the living body, a filmy tissue is formed on the surface of the base material. At that time, by utilizing a material which is excellent in biocompatibility but is hardly invaded by a tissue body or a constituting component thereof as a material of the outer hull member 2, the outer hull member 2 is adhered with the tissue, the mechanical strength of the connective tissue is enhanced, and an artificial blood vessel in which the tissue or the constituent component thereof is not exposed to the inner face of the outer hull member 2 can be obtained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
