Abstract:
Magnetic surgery,as an emerging discipline,utilizes the principle of "non-contact" magnetic force to drive the innovative development of surgical technology. Magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA),a significant branch of magnetic surgical technology,demonstrates notable advantages in reducing surgical trauma,shortening operation time,and lowering the risk of complications,particularly in the reconstruction of digestive tract and vascular anastomoses. Compared to traditional suturing and mechanical anastomoses,MCA avoids defects such as the "pinhole effect" and "foreign body reaction",leveraging the advantages of magnetic force's non-contact nature,gradient variation, uniformity,and directionality to significantly reduce the risks of anastomotic bleeding,stenosis,and fistula. However,the widespread adoption of MCA still faces challenges,including the biological safety of magnetic materials,optimization of magnet design,intelligent application,and large-scale clinical validation. To address these,it is necessary to further standardize clinical operation procedures,enhance safety assessments,promote interdisciplinary integration,and accelerate technological iteration and translation of research findings,with the aim of facilitating broader clinical application of MCA for the benefit of patients.
