摘要

The present invention is directed to a surgical guide line assembly (10) for use during a surgical procedure. The surgical guide assembly (10) permits the manipulation of a surgical component with a vessel during a surgical procedure, such as for example an intravascular procedure. The surgical guide line assembly (10) includes a guide line component (11) having a proximal end and a distal end, and at least one suture (12) secured to the distal end of the guide line component (11). The present invention is also directed to a surgical separator assembly (60) for use in separating at least two surgical components during a surgical procedure in a vessel.
