Background Cell-derived sheets are of global interest for regenerative therapy. Transplanting a sheet for abdominal organs requires a device for laparoscopic delivery to minimize invasiveness. Here, using a porcine model, we aimed to confirm the feasibility of a device developed to deliver sheets to the thoracic cavity in a laparoscopic transplantation procedure. Material and methods We used the device to transplant human skeletal myoblast cell sheets onto the liver and measured extra-corporeal, intra-abdominal, and total procedure times for sheet transplantation. Tissues, including the liver and the sheet, were collected two days after transplantation and analyzed histologically. Results In all experiments (n = 27), all sheets were successfully placed at target locations. The mean (± standard deviation) extra-corporeal, intra-abdominal, and total procedure times were 44 ± 29, 33 ± 12, and 77 ± 36 s, respectively. We found no difference between the two surgeons in procedure times. Histological analyses showed no liver damage with the transplantation and that sheets were transplanted closely onto the liver tissue without gaps. Conclusion We confirmed the feasibility of a simple universal device to transplant cell-derived sheets via laparoscopic surgery. This device could support a minimally invasive procedure for sheet transplantation.
