A system, method and apparatus for promoting the growth of tissue regenerate into a wound area in an organized tissue structure in a living human or animal body from a wound surface in the wound area in a predetermined direction. An envelope structure (5) encloses the wound area to inhibit intrusion of granulation tissue into the wound area and mechanical guidance device (11) for the expanding tissue regenerator is arranged in the enclosed wound area in such a manner that it extends in the predetermined direction. According to one aspect, a fibrin network formation inhibitor and agent are administered in a cooperative manner to the wound surface in the wound area enclosed. According to another aspect, the mechanical guide device is in the form of a gel structure provided with one or more guide channels for the growing tissue regenerate extending in the predetermined direction. |
