Abstract

See full text

Various embodiments of a medical device having a dilation capability and related methods are disclosed. For example, the medical device may include a distal assembly having a radially expandable body defining a passageway therethrough, and a control member extending from the distal assembly to a proximal end of the device. Actuation of the control member may apply a compressive force to the body, causing the body to radially expand and a cross-sectional area of the passageway to increase.
