Abstract
A catheter comprises a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen. The catheter has a first outer diameter. The distal end of the catheter is flared radially outwardly to a second outer diameter. An elongated core is disposed within the lumen of the catheter. A plurality of fins are connected to the core. Each fin is resilient and projects radially outwardly from the outer surface of the core and terminates in a radially outwardly directed free end. The core is axially movable with respect to the catheter between a first position where the plurality of fins are completely located within the first outer diameter portion of the catheter and a second position where some of the plurality of fins are located within the second outer diameter portion of the catheter and some of the plurality of fins are located distally beyond the distal end of the catheter.
