Abstract
An elongated guidewire assembly has a distal segment configured to be selectively maneuvered, along an elongated Introducer assembly. The distal segment is configured to selectively transmit a tenting force from the elongated guidewire assembly to the first biological wall after the distal segment has contacted, at least in part, the first biological wall and the distal segment has been selectively protracted away from the distal introducer assembly.
