Magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA) is emerging as a promising alternative that uses magnetic force to create an anastomosis bypassing the stenosis in biliary strictures (BSs) where techniques such as percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with stent placement are inadequate in the presence of complete obstruction or severe stenosis. MCA offers potential benefits such as less operative trauma, shorter hospital stay and lower complication rates. By placing magnets proximal and distal to the stenosis, necrosis of fibrotic tissue occurs, creating a new anastomosis. Investigating the role of MCA in the treatment of BS is crucial because of its potential to revolutionize care, improve outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. It offers an alternative for patients who are not suitable for conventional surgery. A comprehensive review of the principles, techniques, outcomes and applications of MCA is essential to inform clinicians, researchers and policy makers and to guide future research and clinical practice to optimize patient care for BSs.
