Cryopreserved Umbilical Cord Allograft

**Semantic type:** Tissue

**Definition:** An allograft composed of cryopreserved, ultra-thick umbilical cord tissue in which the natural structural and biological characteristics of the native placental tissue has been preserved, that may potentially be used to improve wound healing and nerve regeneration. The cryopreserved umbilical cord allograft retains the heavy chain hyaluronic acid/pentraxin3 (HC-HA/PTX3) complex and growth factors that minimize inflammation, reduce scar tissue formation, and promote nerve and tissue healing. Upon placement of the allograft to the relevant area(s) at the surgical site, the allograft may aid in improving nerve regeneration and wound healing.
