\"In a major medical breakthrough, Tel Aviv University researchers have \"printed\" the world\'s first 3D vascularised engineered heart using a patient\'s own cells and biological materials. Their findings were published on April 15 in a study in Advanced Science. The engineered heart completely matches the immunological, cellular, biochemical and anatomical properties of the patient.\"\
\
\"Maybe, in ten years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world, and these procedures will be conducted routinely.\"
