Abstract of the Disclosure: An intercostal tube designed to be inserted between the ribs of a patient for drainage purposes of the chest area, made of relatively stiff but pliable plastic material with its inserting end at a sharp taper that nevertheless preserves the ade- quate rigidity to permit the tube to be compressed transversely and inserted between the ribs, without widening the portion of the tube required to pass between the ribs, which would require a larger opening in the patient, and increased pain.
