As a type of elastomeric polymers, non-degradable polyurethanes (PUs) have a long history of being used in clinics, whereas biodegradable PUs have been developed in recent decades, primarily for tissue repair and regeneration. Biodegradable thermoplastic (linear) PUs are soft and elastic polymeric biomaterials with high mechanical strength, which mimics the mechanical properties of soft and elastic tissues. Therefore, biodegradable thermoplastic polyurethanes are promising scaffolding materials for soft and elastic tissue repair and regeneration. Generally, PUs are synthesized by linking three types of changeable blocks: diisocyanates, diols, and chain extenders. Alternating the combination of these three blocks can finely tailor the physio-chemical properties and generate new functional PUs. These PUs have excellent processing flexibilities and can be fabricated into three-dimensional (3D) constructs using conventional and/or advanced technologies, which is a great advantage compared with cross-linked thermoset elastomers. Additionally, they can be combined with biomolecules to incorporate desired bioactivities to broaden their biomedical applications. In this review, we comprehensively summarized the synthesis, structures, and properties of biodegradable thermoplastic PUs, and introduced their multiple applications in tissue repair and regeneration. A whole picture of their design and applications along with discussions and perspectives of future directions would provide theoretical and technical supports to inspire new PU development and novel applications. Linear biodegradable polyurethanes with high elasticity and good biocompatibility have been utilized for soft and elastic tissue repair. The biofunctions and characteristics of biodegradable polyurethanes can be effectively offered and tuned through designing and altering chemical structures, and they also can be easily processed into desirable architectures. New chemistry and further evaluations are expected for future development and applications of biodegradable elastic polyurethanes in tissue repair.
