Abstract
A system is provided which includes a cannula and a secondary device. The cannula includes an expandable member, a cannula lumen, and a cannula proximal end. The expandable member includes a proximal most end, a distal most end, at least two movable sections, with the space between the at least two moveable sections, and an impermeable membrane extending across the space between each of the at least two moveable sections. In addition, the impermeable membrane extends from the expandable member distal most end to the expandable member proximal most end. The secondary device is configured to be coaxially placed through the cannula lumen. The cannula proximal end is configured to operatively couple to a vacuum source configured to create a negative pressure to pull an undesirable material into the cannula lumen.
