ABSTRACT:
An angioplasty catheter has a one-piece, flexible elongated tube in which a hollow proximal section tapers to form a solid distal core with a solid cross-section. The core further tapers to form a safety wire at the distal end of the catheter. An inflatable balloon circumscribes the elongated tube and the interior of the balloon is in fluid communication with a lumen defined by the hollow proximal section of the tube through at least one aperture extending through the tube wall and into the balloon interior. A coil spring extends distally from the balloon about the solid distal core and safety wire, with the safety wire secured to an end cap of the coil spring.
