Haemodialysis access via tissue-engineered vascular graft – Authors' replyOur report of a completely autologous tissue-engineered vascular graft triggered a range of comments from the readership. Although these letters recognise the importance of these first human studies, several comments focus on the issue of aneurysm formation. Indeed, aneurysm formation has been the fundamental challenge for tissue-based vascular prostheses, dating back to the Sparks-mandril graft in the 1960s.1 Interestingly, however, this historical association with dilatation has typically been a long-term response.
