A tissue expansion device, system, and method are provided. A device for dilating tissue comprises at least one fluid delivery tube and at least one fluid delivery element in fluid communication with the at least one fluid delivery tube. The at least one fluid delivery tube includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen between the proximal and distal ends. The device is constructed and arranged to provide almost complete circumferential expansion of luminal wall tissue. Systems and methods are also provided that include a system for expanding a tissue layer and treating tissue proximate to the expanded tissue layer. [Selection] Figure 2 |
