Abstract
An Amplatz sheath for positioning inside a natural or artificially created bodily cavity in a human or animal has a distal end toward the body and a proximal end away from the body, with at least one lumen being formed between the distal end and the proximal end. At least in a region at the proximal end, the Amplatz sheath is transparent or translucent and, in this region, has at least one marking for determining the position of the Amplatz sheath in relation to a catheter that can be received in the lumen. The Amplatz sheath can be used with a balloon catheter in a dilation system.
