Abstract:
A malleable cannula has a body with a proximal end and a distal end, the body having a wall defining a lumen extending from the proximal end to the distal end. A reinforcement member extends along the lumen, the reinforcement member having an interior side facing the lumen and an exterior side facing away from the lumen. A malleable member extends along a portion of the exterior side of the reinforcement member. The malleable member may be constructed of a tube with a wire slidably received within the tube and may include an anchor.
