| Summary | Postoperative mucosal regeneration of the middle ear cavity and the mastoid cavity is of great importance after middle ear surgery. However, the epithelialization of the mucosa in the middle ear is retarded because chronic inflammation without epithelialization aggravates gas exchange and clinical function. These environmental conditions in the middle ear lead to postoperative retraction and adhesion of the newly-formed tympanic membrane. Therefore, if the mucosa on the exposed middle ear bone surface can be rapidly regenerated after surgery, the surgical treatments for cholesteatoma and adhesive middle ear disease can potentially be improved. In this study, we successfully generated a cell sheet designed for the postoperative treatment of cholesteatoma. We used nasal cells to create an artificial middle ear mucosal cell sheet with a three-dimensional (3D) configuration similar to that of the middle ear mucosa. The sheets consisted of multi-layered mucosal epithelia and lower connective tissue and were similar to normal middle ear mucosa. This result indicates that tissue-engineered mucosal cell sheets would be useful to minimize complications after surgical operations in the middle ear and future clinical applications are expected.
