    摘要: An example system for creating a lumen according to the present disclosure includes, among other possible things a balloon wound in a generally helical shape having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a support attached to at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface of the generally helical shape and constraining the tubular balloon in the generally helical shape. The balloon has a first diameter in a low-profile operating mode and the generally helical shape has a second diameter in a high-profile operating mode, and the second diameter is larger than the first diameter. Other example systems for creating a lumen and methods for creating a lumen in an artery are also disclosed.
