<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thrombus suction catheter with improved suction and crossing capable of sucking atheroma and reaching a lesion part with steep bend. <P>SOLUTION: A thrombus suction catheter which is a tube having a distal end opening 12 formed into angled cut surface. In the distal end opening 12, at least a part 161 on the proximal end side of the cut surface 16 is formed in a concave shape in an angled direction, and the distal end side 162 of the cut surface 16 is formed to be flat and flexible. With the distal end configuration, suction and crossing performances are significantly improved. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
