Abstract
Bioprinting is a very useful tool that has a huge application potential in different fields of science and biotechnology. In medicine, advances in bioprinting are focused on the printing of cells and tissues for skin regeneration and the manufacture of viable human organs, such as hearts, kidneys, and bones. This review provides a chronological overview of some of the most relevant developments of bioprinting technique and its current status. A search was carried out in SCOPUS, Web of Science, and PubMed databases, and a total of 31,603 papers were found, of which 122 were finally chosen for analysis. These articles cover the most important advances in this technique at the medical level, its applications, and current possibilities. Finally, the paper ends with conclusions about the use of bioprinting and our expectations of this technique. This paper presents a review on the tremendous progress of bioprinting from 1998 to the present day, with many promising results indicating that our society is getting closer to achieving the total reconstruction of damaged tissues and organs and thus solving many healthcare-related problems, including the shortage of organ and tissue donors.
