Abstract
A method for making a probe for placing a guidewire between two tissues in a patient's body may involve forming at least one bend in a thin, rigid tube having a proximal end and a distal end, flattening at least part of the tube closer to the distal end than the proximal end, and removing a portion of the upper surface of the flattened part of the tube to form an aperture. A probe for placing a guidewire between two tissues in a patient's body may include: a thin, rigid tube having a proximal straight portion, a flattened distal portion, a bend disposed between the proximal and distal portions, and a lumen passing through the proximal portion and at least part of the distal portion; and a curved, flexible tubular member disposed at least partially within the lumen of the tube.
