BALLOON AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING

摘要

A surgical balloon is disclosed. The balloon can have or be attached to a longitudinal or transverse constraining band. The band can impair, restrain or deform radial expansion of a portion of the balloon during inflation. The balloon can be used in vascular procedures. The band can restrain a portion of the inflated balloon such that a channel exists between the restrained portion of the balloon and the vascular wall. Fluid can flow through the channel while the balloon is inflated in the vessel. The balloon can also be used to expand a support device. The balloon can be used to in an intrabone or interbone space to support bone.
