BACKGROUND Although previous studies have confirmed the feasibility of magnetic compression anastomosis(MCA),there is still a risk of long-term anastomotic stenosis.For traditional MCA devices,a large device is associated with great pressure,and eventually increased leakage.AIM To develop a novel MCA device to simultaneously meet the requirements of pressure and size.METHODS Traditional nummular MCA devices of all possible sizes were used to conduct ileac anastomosis in rats.The mean(±SD)circumference of the ileum was 13.34±0.12 mm.Based on short-and long-term follow-up results,we determined the appropriate pressure range and minimum size.Thereafter,we introduced a novel“fedora-type”MCA device,which entailed the use of a nummular magnet with a larger sheet metal.RESULTS With traditional MCA devices,the anastomoses experienced stenosis and even closure during the long-term follow-up when the anastomat was smaller thanΦ5 mm.However,the risk of leakage increased when it was larger thanΦ4 mm.On comparison of the different designs,it was found that the“fedora-type”MCA device should be composed of aΦ4-mm nummular magnet with aΦ6-mm sheet metal.CONCLUSION The diameter of the MCA device should be greater than 120%of the enteric diameter.The novel“fedora-type”MCA device controls the pressure and optimizes the size.
