From: Effect of tissue tension on magnetic compression anastomosis of digestive tract

Surgical procedure. (A) The parent magnet (PM) reaches the stomach. (B) The PM reaches the end of the duodenum. (C) The daughter magnet (DM) reaches the stomach. (D) In the control group, the magnets attract each other without tension in the gastrointestinal tract. (E) In the study group, the magnets attract each other under high tension in the gastrointestinal tract. *stomach, #duodenum.
