Zusammenfassung:A vascular occlusion catheter may be employed for at least partial occlusion of a target vessel. The vascular occlusion catheter system includes a proximal catheter shaft having at least one internal lumen, and a distal catheter shaft terminating in an atraumatic tip. An occlusion balloon is sealingly mounted to the proximal and distal catheter shafts. A central catheter shaft extends through the proximal catheter shaft, the occlusion balloon and into the distal catheter shaft. The proximal catheter shaft is secured to the central catheter shaft on a proximal side of the occlusion balloon and the distal catheter shaft is secured to the central catheter shaft on a distal side of the occlusion balloon. The occlusion balloon, the proximal catheter shaft and the distal catheter shaft have a greatest outer diameter of less than seven French (7 Fr) in an uninflated condition.
