[Magneto-implants in surgery of the motorsystem. A project (author's transl)]

The high quality material of permanent magnetos permits various applications to the surgery of the motor system. When designing artificial joints, for certain osteosyntheses and osteotomies, for the stimulation of growth at the epiphyses and in orthopedic techniques. Encouraging attempts at "magneto-medicine" exist in ophthalmology, urology and general surgery. We propose to test permanent magnets for attraction and separation in orthopedic and traumatic surgery.
