The invention further concerns a method of making such catheter and an apparatus for performing this method.

La présente invention concerne un cathéter à usage médical, destiné par exemple à être inséré dans un orifice corporel en vue d'évacuer des liquides. Ledit cathéter comprend un tuyau flexible qui présente une région d'extrémité distale, ledit tuyau étant pourvu d'au moins une ouverture d'évacuation. Le cathéter se caractérise en ce que la bordure périphérique située sur l'extérieur dudit tuyau présente une courbe formant une transition en douceur entre la surface extérieure du tuyau et la fente orientée de manière substantiellement radiale qui constitue le côté d'ouverture. Ladite courbe forme un rebord arrondi dont le rayon de courbure varie entre 0,2 et 0,6 mm. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé et un dispositif de fabrication d'un tel cathéter
