A catheter adapted for placement within a living anatomy, such as the human coronary arterial system, comprises a proximal portion, a first arcuate portion, a second arcuate portion, and a distal tip. The catheter is shaped so that with the distal tip engaged in the coronary ostium, the ellipsoidal shaped second arcuate portion is in contact with the contralateral wall of the aorta, the catheter thus resisting forces tending to displace the distal tip from the ostium.
L'invention porte sur un cathéter adapté à l'anatomie d'êtres vivants et en particulier au système d'artères coronaires de l'homme, et comportant une partie proximale, une première partie incurvée, une deuxième partie incurvée et un embout distal. La forme du cathéter est telle que lorsque l'embout distal est engagé dans l'orifice d'une coronaire, sa deuxième portion incurvée ellipsoïdale entre en contact avec les parois contralatérales de l'aorte, ce qui permet au cathéter de résister aux forces tendant à écarter l'embout distal de l'orifice.
