A method for manufacturing a catheter, includes forming a mandrel by arranging at least first and second elongate members in an at least partial longitudinal juxtaposed relation with respect to a longitudinal axis defined by the mandrel, mounting an inner liner having an internal surface about the mandrel, treating the inner liner whereby the first and second elongate members of the mandrel cause irregularities within the internal surface of the inner liner, positioning an outer member about the inner liner and removing at least the inner liner from the mandrel, thereby forming a catheter having the inner liner with irregularities.
