It is an object of the present invention to provide a cell construct for cell transplantation that does not contain a substance having cytotoxicity, such as glutaraldehyde, and suppresses the necrosis of the transplanted cells in the construct (namely, having a high cell survival rate). The present invention provides a cell construct for cell transplantation comprising biocompatible polymer blocks that do not contain glutaraldehyde and at least one type of cells, wherein a plurality of biocompatible polymer blocks are disposed in gaps among a plurality of cells, and wherein the biocompatible polymer blocks have a tap density of 10 mg/cm3 or more and 500 mg/cm3 or less, or the value of the square root of the cross-sectional area/boundary length in the two-dimensional sectional image of the polymer block is 0.01 or more and 0.13 or less.
