Spinal cord injury is a serious complication of spinal fracture. It is a trauma-induced neurological disorder, which can cause motor, sensory, sphincter and autonomic nerve dysfunction below the injury site, leading to severe disability. At present, although the technology of spinal internal fixation is very mature, the treatment methods for the recovery of spinal cord injury are limited and the efficacy is not exact. Research has found that cell transplantation can, to a certain extent, increase the regenerative potential of the nerve and promote the recovery of the nervous system, and the combination of transplanted cells loaded on a biological scaffold and transplanted together at the injury site can significantly increase the survival rate of the cells after transplantation and promote the recovery of spinal cord injury. However, there are differences in the degree of repair of spinal cord injury between different combination treatments, and the selection of an appropriate combination treatment is of great value in promoting the recovery of spinal cord function after injury. This article provided a review of the role of biological scaffold and cell transplantation in the repair of spinal cord injury, and summarized the current research progress of the combination of bioengineering technology and cell transplantation, aiming to provide literature information for clinical research and further basic research, and offering new ideas for the development and application of these approaches in the repair of spinal cord injury.
