Magnetic surgery is a new comprehensive clinical technology discipline, and also a typical cross discipline integrating clinical medicine, materials science, biomechanics and other science. It is also an innovative thinking exploration guided by clinical problems. Magnetic surgery has been evolving for more than 40 years, and its development has entered the discipline construction stage after the experimental demonstration stage and the free exploration stage. Magnetic surgery consists of six core technical systems: magnetic compression technique, magnetic anchor technique, magnetic levitation technique, magnetic tracer technique, magnetic navigation technique and magnetic driving technique. Currently, the techniques of magnetic surgery used in clinic are mainly magnetic compression technique and magnetic anchor technique. For example, magnetic compression technique can be used for gastrointestinal anastomosis reconstruction, urinary tract anastomosis, and rectovaginal fistula closure repair. Magnetic anchor technique can be applied to assist traction exposure and replace secondary operation ports in Laparoscopic surgery to achieve the goal of reducing port, such as Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy with reducing port and laparoscopic cholecystectomy with reducing port.
At present, more new magnetic surgery techniques are applied in clinical practice. The application of magnetic surgery techniques can provide a new method for the diagnosis and treatment of clinical diseases, improve the surgical experience of surgeons and promote the development of medical instruments. In the research topic, we focus on the clinical application of innovative magnetic surgical techniques and evaluate the application effect. In addition, we highlight the analysis of cases and the presentation of relevant innovative concepts based on previous applications of magnetic surgical techniques.
We welcome submissions on the following topics, but are not limited to:
- Clinical application of magnetic compression anastomosis
- Clinical application of magnetic anchoring technique
- Clinical application of magnetic surgery combined with endoscopic technique
