摘要:The present invention relates to an instrument and method for passing amedical implement through tissue with magnetic forces. The implement can be animplant, either permanent or temporary, and is provided with a magnetic component. Amagnetic field is established and the magnetic component and/or magnetic field is
manipulated to drive the implant through tissue. Alternatively, the instrument itself is theimplement and includes at least one magnetic element so that a magnetic fieldestablished by an external magnetic generator drives the instrument through tissue. Inanother embodiment, the instrument includes two magnetic elements that are moveablewith respect to one another and interaction between the magnetic elements drives theinstrument through the tissue. Examples of applications of the present invention includea suture passer and a tissue anchor.
