<p>A vascular perfusion catheter (10) includes a catheter body (12) having a macroporous matrix (40) forming at least a portion of its distal end (16). A solution carrying a desired therapeutic agent may be introduced through the catheter (10) and released through the macroporous matrix (40) under controlled conditions. By forming a matrix as a tubular element (20), the therapeutic agent may be released uniformly in all radial directions over a preselected length within a blood vessel.</p> |
