Abstract

The present invention discloses an illuminating guidewire medical device, which may include an elongated flexible housing, an illuminating optical fiber and a core wire extending through at least a portion of the housing, the core wire providing the desired pushability and torque applicability. The lighting device may also include a connector assembly that mates with the lighting fiber to accommodate a change in length to absorb forces applied during use of the device and guide the lighting fiber exiting from the device. of the light that has gone astray.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to medical devices, systems and methods, and more particularly to methods and devices for performing minimally invasive procedures to reduce the need to provide fluoroscopic or other radiographic imaging. Background technique [0002] The skull contains a series of cavities called the paranasal sinuses, which are connected by passages. The paranasal sinuses include the frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, and maxillary sinuses. The paranasal sinuses are lined with mucus-producing mucous membranes that eventually lead to the nasal cavity. Normally, mucus produced by mucosal tissues slowly drains out of each sinus through openings called ostia. If the mucosal tissue of one of these channels becomes inflamed for any reason, the cavity that flows out through that channel becomes blocked. This blockage can be periodic (leading to painful episodes) or chronic. This interference with mucus drainage (eg, closure of the sinus ...
