Recent studies have successfully integrated microvascular
Three-dimensional bioprinting technology has networks within these bioprinted ear models, enhancing
significantly advanced the development of ear models tissue viability by mimicking natural nutrient and oxygen
for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. This supply. Additionally, 3D bioprinting has shown potential
technology allows for the precise deposition of cells and in incorporating therapeutic agents into the printed
biomaterials, enabling the creation of complex structures structures, improving treatments for conditions such as
that closely mimic the natural architecture of human cartilage damage and ear deformities. These technological
tissues. The printing of ear constructs, in particular, uses advancements have revolutionized ear model fabrication,
patient-specific imaging data to achieve high accuracy, offering robust and customizable solutions that enhance
