This study aimed to explore the feasibility of the magnetic compression technique (MCT) for ureterovesical anastomosis in a rabbit model with ureteral obstruction. The distal ureteral obstruction model using female New Zealand rabbits was induced by ligating the distal end of the right ureter with silk thread for four weeks. A pair of cylindrical NdFeB magnets (daughter magnet and parent magnet) with a hole in the center was used for the ureterovesical anastomosis. The daughter magnet and the parent magnet were respectively placed close to the obstruction site through the dilated proximal ureter and urethra, and then the daughter-parent magnets pair was attracted together automatically. Postoperative X-rays were taken to confirm the position of the magnets. The anastomotic stoma specimens were obtained two weeks postoperatively, and the anastomotic stoma formation was observed by the naked eye and histological staining. The operation time and the anastomotic burst pressure were measured. The ureter was significantly dilated in the fourth week after ligation, which satisfied the placement of the daughter magnet. The ureterovesical magnet placements were successfully performed in ten experimental rabbits, with an operation time of 36.5 ± 6.09 min. The parent and daughter magnets attracted each other well and were subsequently removed through the urethra two weeks postoperatively, resulting in the establishment of ureterovesical anastomosis. The anastomotic burst pressure was 147.5 ± 14.59 mmHg. Gross specimens and histological examination of the anastomotic stoma showed that the anastomotic stoma healed well. MCT is feasible and simple for ureterovesical anastomosis.
