Multi-purpose balloon catheter
First Claim
1. A multi-purpose balloon catheter comprising a tubular body having a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, and at least two lumens within said tubular body, said distal end portion having three spaced apart balloons thereon, said balloons being positioned proximal, middle, and distal relative to each other, the distal balloon being an occlusive balloon, the middle balloon being a stent mounting balloon having a stent mounted thereon, and the proximal balloon being an occlusive balloon, one of said lumens communicating with said middle balloon, said tubular body defining at least one proximal perfusion port located proximally of said proximal balloon and at least one distal perfusion port located distally of said proximal perfusion port, the other of said lumens communicating between said proximal and distal perfusion ports.

20. A multi-purpose balloon catheter, comprising:
-
a tubular catheter body having a proximal and distal end portion, said tubular body defining a first, second and third inflation lumen; a first, second and third balloon affixed to said distal end portion of the tubular body and being longitudinally spaced from each other, said first balloon being a relatively elastic occlusive balloon positioned proximal of the second balloon, and the second balloon being a stent mounting balloon positioned proximal of the third balloon, the third balloon being a transparent or translucent photodynamic therapy balloon; wherein said first, second and third inflation lumen communicate with the first, second and third balloon, respectively; and a light delivery fiber extending within the tubular body to said third balloon to provide light energy to the interior of the third balloon. - View Dependent Claims (21)
