Spinal cord injury often results in a permanent loss of motor and sensory functions, due to the low ability of adult axons to regenerate. One of the treatment strategies is the development of scaffolding materials that bridge the damaged tissue or cavity and promote endogenous axonal regrowth. In this chapter, the results from the implantation or injection of various synthetic or natural polymers with various modification, stiffness, and porosity are summarized and critically discussed.
