- •
The esophageal scaffold was fabricated by a portable table top melt-drawing device.
- •
Poly(l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) is ideal for melt-drawing of esophageal scaffold.
- •
Highly aligned microfibers with uniform fiber diameters was obtained.
- •
The melt-drawn fibers has good tensile properties.
