subject is disclosed. The system includes an internal magnet assembly, a
snare assembly, an external magnet, a pull wire system and a feeding tube
assembly. The internal magnet assembly includes an internal magnet having
a first coupling surface and a tether for traversing an endoscope
instrument channel. The snare assembly includes a snare, a snare
operating device, and a cable. The external magnet includes a second
coupling surface. The polar orientation of the external magnet is

and second coupling surface are magnetically attracted. The pull wire
system includes a needle, a cannula and a pull wire. The feeding tube
assembly includes a tube, a snare, a connector, and a dome fixed to the
tube. A method of use is disclosed.
