BAMH\/SF, CH\/SF and SF scaffolds were incubated in the omentum of male rabbits for two weeks and then harvested for repairing autologous urethral defects. Histological analysis of the incubated scaffolds was performed to evaluate the neovascularization capacity, and the outcomes of urethroplasty were evaluated at one and three months post-operatively.\n                    <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n                    : The composited scaffolds were composed of a highly porous BAMH or CH buttressed by compact SF outer layer. The histological analysis of the incubated BAMH\/SF revealed a signifcant increase of the neovascularization among three groups after a two-week incubation. At three months, the urethra maintained wide caliber in the BAMH\/SF group. Strictures were found in the CH\/SF and SF groups. Histologically, at one month, intact and multilayer epithelium occurred in the BAMH\/SF group, and one layer epithelium was found in the CH\/SF and SF groups. However, there was similar epithelial regeneration in BAMH\/SF and CH\/SF groups at three months (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0&gt;\u00a00.05).
