1 Early Clinical Results With a Magnetic Connector for Distal Coronary Artery Anastomoses 
Calin Vicol, MD, Sandra Eifert, MD, Martin Oberhoffer, MD, Peter Boekstegers, MD, Andreas Knez, MD, Frank Christ, MD, Bruno Reichart, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 79, Issue 5, Pages (May 2005) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2005 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 The magnetic vascular positioner anastomotic device. (a) Delivery device with deployment handle (left) and positioning handle (right). Three magnetic clips are preloaded on the distal tip of the positioning handle. (b) Magnified clip set consisting of one (oval-shaped) intravascular and two extravascular magnetic clips.

3 Fig 2 Implantation steps of the magnetic vascular positioner into a vessel. (a) Toe of intravascular magnetic clip is inserted into incision up to delivery front leg (arrow). Heel of intravascular magnetic clip is lowered into incision. (b) Tissue is retracted by lifting delivery system shoe out of the incision (arrow), draping tissue over intravascular magnetic clip. Tissue stabilization sheath secures incision edges before deployment of extravascular magnetic clips. (c) Deployment arms then lower extravascular magnetic clips and release intravascular magnetic clip. (d) Delivery system is removed from completed anastomotic port.

4 Fig 3 Postoperative coronary angiography in patient 5. (a) Left internal thoracic artery-to-left descending coronary artery. Patent end-to-side magnetic vascular positioner (MVP) anastomosis. (b) Aorto-to-right coronary artery venous graft. Patent MVP end-to-side anastomosis. (c) Sequential venous graft to first diagonal branch and to posterolateral branch. Patent side-to-side MVP anastomosis and end-to-side hand-sewn anastomosis.
