A porous artificial transplant material to replace autogenous bone with excellent biocompatibility, cytocompatibility and biodegradability is provided. More specifically, a porous scaffold for tissue engineering including chitosan/hydroxyapatite-amylopectin (Chitosan/HAp-AP) and a preparation method thereof are provided. The porous scaffold for tissue engineering has cross linkage among chitosan, hydroxyapatite and amylopectin, which provides advantageous effect including superior cell proliferation and transmission, and excellent thermal stability and mechanical strength. Further, considering excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability which do not harm human body, the porous scaffold can be widely used as an artificial transplant material to replace autogenous bone in biomedical field.
