During the past decades, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) has been developed to treat early intramucosal esophageal cancers and dysplastic Barrett's esophagus. The primary drawback of this method is severe postsurgical esophageal stricture formation. The purpose of this preclinical study was to assess strategies for prevention of this major complication by injecting autologous keratinocytes in the EMR mucosal defect in the sheep model.
