Abstract
A dilation catheter suitable for use in medical procedures is provided which includes a balloon disposed on an elongated flexible tube. The tube is capable of passing fluid between the balloon and the tube for varying the balloon between a collapsed and expanded condition. The catheter includes a brace fitted over the balloon for restricting expansion of a selected portion of the balloon for forming a perfusion channel that allows fluid to be perfused past the balloon when it is expanded in a body vessel. A medical procedure for dilation under perfusion conditions is also provided.
