The disclosure provides apparatus and methods for reentering a true lumen. The reentry catheter includes a shaft that includes a proximal opening in a proximal end of the shaft, a J-shaped filler in a distal end of the shaft, and a distal side opening in a sidewall of the shaft. The distal side opening is adjacent to the J-shaped filler. A passageway extends between the proximal opening and the distal side opening. The proximal opening, the distal side opening, and the passageway each are configured for the passage of an elongate medical device there through. A movable cover is hingedly attached to the sidewall of the shaft biased in a closed position and configured to occlude the distal side opening when in the closed position. The elongate medical device is configured to open the movable cover, the movable cover is configured to facilitate reentry to a true lumen. |
