Abstract
A catheter system includes a guide catheter having a lumen defining a distal orifice. The catheter system further includes a conduit segment positioned within the lumen and movable between (i) an upper position at which the conduit segment is entirely contained within the lumen of the guide catheter, and (ii) a lower position at which the conduit segment extends through the distal orifice so as to be partially positioned outside of the guide catheter. The catheter system further includes an actuator wire positioned within the lumen of the guide catheter and coupled to the conduit segment. Movement of the actuator wire causes movement of the conduit segment.
