Zusammenfassung:A rapid exchange microcatheter (600) for accessing the intracranial neurovasculature. A side opening (604) through the sidewall is located a first distance proximal to the distal-most tip. A proximal opening (606) located proximal to the side opening is a second distance from the distal-most tip. A distal, reinforced catheter portion (650) extends between a distal end region to a point near the side opening. A proximal, reinforced catheter portion (652) extends a distance from a point near the side opening towards the proximal end of the catheter body. The side opening is positioned within a gap (G) between a proximal end of the distal reinforced catheter portion and a distal end of the proximal reinforced catheter portion. A payload (505) of a cerebral treatment device is housed within the lumen proximal to the side opening. Related devices and systems are disclosed.
