A catheter has a tubular outer member which defines a lumen which receives an inner catheter member which defines a lumen to receive a guidewire. A vascular support formed from a radially expandable permeable member mesh of braided fibers is fixedly connected to the inner catheter so as to form a proximal mesh cone at the proximal end and is connected to a tip on the distal end of the guidewire at its distal end. After a period of use, the vascular support can be withdrawn by advancing the inner tubular catheter so that the distal end thereof engages the proximal mesh cone of the vascular support which is thus guided to retract and move within the inner catheter.
