Fabrication of off-the-shelf small diameter vascular graft as an alternative to current autologous graft in clinical setting i.e., internal mammary artery and saphenous veins has yet to be perfected. With cardiovascular diseases (CVD) topping the list of the causes of death worldwide, alternative vascular graft is especially crucial in patients with a lack of autologous grafts. Successful re-vascularisation could substantially lower the progression of CVD and mortality rate. This chapter delves into cells that are vital in developing a tissue engineered vascular graft (TEVG), ranging from the native tissue on the vascular bed to the potential cells that could be utilized, compounds that possibly could improve the available grafts and stents and future TEVG design.
