A fluid duct includes a body and an elongate rib. The body extends along a central axis and defines a lumen configured to receive a first fluid extending therethrough. The body has an inner surface and an outer surface. The central axis defines an axial direction along the central axis, a radial direction perpendicular to the central axis, and a circumferential direction oriented rotationally about the central axis. The elongate rib is positioned on the inner surface of the body and extends radially inward from the inner surface of the body. The elongate rib defines a channel extending through the elongate rib in a primary direction. The channel is configured to receive a second fluid and isolate the second fluid from the first fluid.
