A diagnostic device (10) for pathologies of tubular anatomical structures comprises a tubular elongated structure (12, 28) developing between a proximal end and a distal end and is suitable to be inserted in the tubular anatomical structure, means (22, 32) for locally dilating the walls of the tubular anatomical structure that are associated with the distal end of said elongated structure, said means for locally dilating being movable between a closed position for introducing the device and at least one open position for viewing and evaluating the pathology, and control means being associated with the proximal end of the elongated structure, said control means being operatively connected to said means for locally dilating, in order to move them between the closed position and the open position, and vice versa.

Cette invention concerne un dispositif diagnostique (10) pour pathologies de structures anatomiques tubulaires comprenant: une structure allongée tubulaire (12, 28) s'étendant entre une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale et pouvant être introduite dans la structure anatomique tubulaire; une unité (22, 32) qui permet de dilater localement les parois de la structure anatomique tubulaire et qui est associée à l'extrémité distale de cette structure allongée, laquelle unité de dilatation locale peut passer d'une position fermée dans laquelle le dispositif peut être introduit à au moins une position ouverte dans laquelle on peut visualiser et évaluer la pathologie, et inversement; et une unité de commande associée à l'extrémité proximale de la structure allongée, laquelle unité de commande est reliée de manière opérationnelle à l'unité de dilatation locale de manière à la faire passer de la position fermée à la position ouverte, et inversement.
