Abstract
A textile engineered prosthetic includes a continuous tube and at least one band of increased thickness formed over a portion of the continuous tube. The continuous tube includes a body portion and a bifurcated portion. The band of increased thickness forms a biomimetic surface. A bioreactor system includes a bioreactor container including a first compartment, a second compartment, a first membrane separating the first and second compartments, a third compartment, and a second membrane separating the second and third compartments. The bioreactor system also includes a woven textile prosthetic integrated with the bioreactor container in the second compartment to form a single bioreactor unit. A furcated textile article includes a continuous tube having a body portion and a furcated portion bifurcated N times from the body portion. The furcated textile article is a continuous woven piece formed from N shuttles of a shuttle loom, where N is at least two.
