Abstract

Transluminal access system includes a stent delivery catheter having a handle control mechanism. The catheter comprises a number of components for establishing an initial penetration between adjacent body lumens and subsequently implanting a stent or other luminal anchor therebetween. Manipulation of the stent components is achieved using control mechanisms on the handle while the handle is attached to an endoscope which provides access to a first body lumen.

Claims (5)

1 . A device, comprising:

a catheter configured to support a self-expanding drainage device;

a first lock configured to prevent movement of the retractable sheath proximally with respect to the catheter, and

a lock stop configured to engage the first lock at a first position to prevent movement of the retractable sheath proximally, past the position, with respect to the catheter upon release of the first lock.
