Disclosed herein are biodegradable scaffolds for in situ tissue engineering. In some examples, biodegradable vascular grafts and methods of fabricating and uses of such are disclosed. In some examples, a vascular graft includes a biodegradable scaffold including a biodegradable polyester tubular core, a biodegradable polyester electrospun outer sheath surrounding the biodegradable polyester tubular core and/or a thromboresistant agent, such as heparin, coating the biodegradable scaffold. The disclosed vascular grafts can be used for forming a blood vessel of less than 6 mm, including, but not limited to a coronary or peripheral arterial. |
