Biomaterials have been contributing to clinical medicine as artificial organs, disposable medical devices, and materials for surgical operations, but many problems remain to be solved in regard to the biomaterials currently being used. There are a number of biomaterials that have not yet been applied to medicine although strongly requested by physicians. This review article first describes the minimum requirements for biomaterials, which include biosafety, sterilizability, and biocompatibility. Differences in biocompatibility from the standpoint of biosafety, and the importance of the biocompatibility are stressed. A more detailed overview is provided in regard to currently used artificial tissues and organs, focusing on present problems and future expectations. Approximately 20 artificial tissues and organs are selected. Finally, this article predicts that two major directions of biomaterials research will be medical applications of absorbable biomaterials and tissue engineering. It is pointed out that absorbable materials of higher mechanical strength are needed to promote their surgical applications. The emerging biomaterial field is expected to be tissue engineering that regenerates biological tissues or reconstructs biological organs by using autogeneic, allogeneic, or xenogeneic cells together with biomaterials.
