An application research on a novel internal grasper platform and magnetic anchoring guide system (MAGS) in laparoscopic surgery

Background Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery attempt to reduce transabdominal port sites. These require all instruments to pass through a single access point, leading to instruments collide or work at unfamiliar angles. Thus, we designed an internal grasper under magnetic anchoring guide system (MAGS) platform and investigated its utility and operability.
