No alternative tissue-engineered vascular grafts for the abdominal venous system are reported. The present study focused on the development of new tissue-engineered vascular graft using a silk-based scaffold material for abdominal venous system replacement. A rat vein, the inferior vena cava, was replaced by a silk fibroin (SF, a biocompatible natural insoluble protein present in silk thread), tissue-engineered vascular graft (10 mm long, 3 mm diameter, n = 19, SF group). The 1 and 4-week patency rates and histologic reactions were compared with those of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene vascular grafts (n = 10, ePTFE group). The patency rate at 1 and 4 weeks after replacement in the SF group was 100.0% and 94.7%, and that in the ePTFE group was 100.0% and 80.0%, respectively. There was no significant difference between groups (p = 0.36). Unlike the ePTFE graft, CD31-positive endothelial cells covered the whole luminal surface of the SF vascular graft at 4 weeks, indicating better endothelialization. SF vascular grafts may be a promising tissue-engineered scaffold material for abdominal venous system replacement.
