Abstract

Methods of and devices for palliating gastrointestinal strictures using rapid exchange type enteral stent placement catheters. The catheter (280) may include an inner member (286,288) and an outer member (290, 294), with the two members being slidable with respect to one another. In various device embodiments, a ramp (292) for directing a guidewire out from within the catheter is provided using portions of the outer member or a shaped mandrel. The inner member may take a number of forms, including a tubular distal portion, a skived or integrally attached elongate midsection, and a proximal portion. A mandrel (296) can be used in a portion proximal of the guidewire ramp, with the mandrel taking one of several disclosed' forms.
