A guiding aid for an instrument to be advanced within a vascular system, particularly the human vascular system, comprising a flexible shapeable shaft (2) comprising a first bent section (4) having a first curvature (K1) and at least one further bent section (6), wherein said bent sections (4, 6) of said shaft (2) have the same sign of curvature and are located substantially within the same plain (E). Such a guiding aid may be pre-formed by the manufacturer such that the guiding aid may be introduced into vascular branchings both from large lumen and small lumen vessels by a physician manipulating the instrument from its proximal end.

L'invention concerne un accessoire de guidage qui permet de faire avancer un instrument à l'intérieur d'un système vasculaire, notamment le système vasculaire humain. L'accessoire de guidage comprend un corps souple conformable (2) présentant une première section coudée (4) munie d'une première courbure (K¿1?), et au moins une autre section coudée (6). Ces sections coudées (4, 6) du corps souple (2) présentent la même empreinte de courbure et sont situées sensiblement à l'intérieur de la même plaine (E). L'accessoire de guidage peut être mis en forme par le fabricant de manière à permettre à un médecin manipulant l'instrument par son extrémité proximale de l'introduire dans des embranchements vasculaires aussi bien à partir de vaisseaux à grande lumière que de vaisseaux à petite lumière.
