Successful engraftment of epithelial cells derived from autologous rabbit buccal mucosal tissue, encapsulated in a polymer scaffold in a rabbit model of a urethral stricture, transplanted using the transurethral approach

Background: A pilot study reported an autologous buccal mucosal cell transplant in humans through the trans-urethral route using the buccal epithelium expanded and encapsulated in scaffold—hybrid approach to urethral stricture (BEES-HAUS), a minimally invasive approach to treat urethral stricture.
