A coupling wire guide structured to be slidably coupled to a previously introduced wire guide during intracorporeal procedures. The coupling wire guide includes a main body and a tip portion, the tip portion having first, second and third sections. The first section is connected to the main body, while the second section interconnects the first and third sections. The third section defines an axial passageway having a distal opening and a proximal opening. The axial passageway is sized to receive the previously introduced wire guide therein. The second section includes a strip sized to leave an open area in communication with the proximal opening. |
