Revolutionary Tech Enhances Surgical Procedures

ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando Health has pioneered a groundbreaking approach by being the first in the U.S. to implement magnetic technology in bariatric surgeries.

During the recent Surgical Innovations Summit, surgeons showcased this state-of-the-art system.

Known as “flexagon self-forming magnets,” this technology received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration earlier this year.

Doctors highlight its potential to make weight-loss surgeries more efficient, less invasive, and safer for patients.
