Abstract: BACKGROUND: Based on the superior properties of ceramics, bioceramic materials are widely used in bone transplantation and tissue engineering. However, it still faces the problems of low mechanical strength and single biological function, which cannot fully meet the clinical application of bone defect repair.  
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research status of bioceramic scaffolds and the effect of manganese doping on the performance of ceramics. 
METHODS: Chinese and English search terms were “manganese, microelements, ceramic biomaterials, hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, 3D printing, bone tissue engineering”. Searches were carried out on CNKI, WanFang, PubMed, and Web of Science databases. Relevant articles published from January 1968 to September 2022 were retrieved. According to the inclusion criteria, 84 articles were finally included.  
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Manganese, as an important locally delivering therapeutically active ion, has a positive stimulating effect on cell function and bone formation. (1) The doping of manganese elements can greatly improve the mechanical properties of ceramic scaffolds, further enhance the osteogenic induction ability of ceramic materials, and endow the scaffolds with additional antibacterial properties. (2) Based on manganese-containing bioceramics, the need for bone defect repair was further met through coating, covalently binding bioactive peptides and regulating the valence of doping elements. (3) It began to gradually change from single-element doping to multi-element doping, and strive to give the stent more characteristics. (4) Doping of manganese elements is an effective modification treatment method. Manganese-containing bioceramics have a good application prospect in the repair of fractures and bone defects by combining advanced material manufacturing technology and the excellent biological activity of manganese.
