With goal of improving fat graft survival, many studies have focused on supplementing cells in the graft fat. In these studies, enhanced vascularization is considered the most important mechanism for the improved graft survival. Endothelial cells (ECs) are essential in vessel formation of the vascularization. Therefore, in this study, we coimplanted ECs with adipose tissue to investigate whether the ECs can enhance graft survival in a cell concentration-dependent manner.
