Objective To review the latest development in the research on the application of the electrostatic spinning technology in preparation of the nanometer high polymer scaffold. Methods The related articles published at home and abroad during the recent years were extensively reviewed and comprehensively analyzed. Results Micro/nano-structure and space topology on the surfaces of the scaffold materials, especially the weaving structure, were considered to have an important effect on the cell adhesion, proliferation, directional growth, and biological activation. The electrospun scaffold was reported to have a resemblance to the structure of the extracellular matrix and could be used as a promising scaffold for the tissue engineeringapplication. The electrospun scaffolds were applied to the cartilage, bone, blood vessel, heart, and nerve tissue engineering fields. Conclusion The nanostructured polymer scaffold can support the cell adhesion, proliferation, location, and differentiation，and this kind of scaffold has a considerable value in the tissue engineering field.
