We are pleased to announce the completion of the first magnetic compression anastomosis cases in the U.S. On Friday, November 15, Helmuth Billy, MD, of Ventura Advanced Surgical Associates https://lnkd.in/g5CEg7Ca completed the cases using the MagDI? System at Community Memorial Healthcare https://www.mycmh.org/ in Ventura County, CA. We thank Dr. Billy, his staff, his patients, and Community Memorial Hospital for being the first to use our magnetic surgery platform, MagDI? System technology in the U.S. For those seeking new tools for less invasive procedures, the MagDI? System is the much-anticipated evolution in bariatrics. We are excited to now accelerate the platform’s U.S. market release in collaboration with leading surgeons and hospital centers.

We’re excited to announce that GT Metabolic’ s revolutionary MagDI? System just received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)1 for side-to-side duodeno-ileal anastomosis! This pioneering magnetic compression anastomosis system is the first to offer a minimally invasive alternative to traditional stapling and suturing. It leaves no foreign materials behind and enhances natural tissue healing.2-4 The MagDI? System uses two linear magnets that are positioned laparoscopically and self-align through the patient’s small bowel. Linear magnetic technology (LMT) compresses the tissue over several weeks to form a secure natural connection, or anastomosis. The magnets then detach and pass through the body naturally, completing the process without cutting or puncturing the intestinal tissue.2-4 With zero bleeds and zero leaks in more than 100 cases in clinical trials worldwide,2 the MagDI? System marks a significant milestone in the evolution of bariatric and metabolic surgery. GT Metabolic is currently partnering with select U.S. bariatric and metabolic health providers to launch the MagDI? System. Learn more about GT Metabolic and the advantages of the MagDI? System at https://gtmetabolic.com/. 1. 510(k) No. K242086. Clearance for Magnetic Compression Anastomosis System (MagDI System) issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. 24 October 2024.?2.
