TRANSLUMINAL DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENLARGING INTERSTITIAL PENETRATION TRACTS

摘要

Methods, apparatus and systems for enlarging interstitial penetration tracts which have been formed between blood vessels or elsewhere within the body of a mammalian patient. Included are debulking-type tract enlarging systems, dilation-type tract enlarging systems, tissue-slicing-type tract enlarging systems and two-catheter-type tract enlarging systems.
