Abstract
A sheath assembly includes a first sheath, a second sheath, and an attachment mechanism. The attachment mechanism secures the second sheath to the first sheath such that a first portion of a second sheath outer surface interfaces with a portion of a first sheath outer surface. The second sheath is configured to transition between an expanded state and a collapsed state such that the profile of the sheath assembly can be reduced when the second sheath is in the collapsed state. This can allow the sheath assembly to become more compact, for instance, during insertion, but yet expandable, for instance, once in place within a patient to suitably accommodate an instrument within the second sheath.
