Description
The balloon catheter comprises a proximal shaft (10) and a distal shaft (12). A transition section (15) is located therebetween, in which a guidewire lumen (17) projects laterally. In order to enhance the resistance to buckling and the rigidity, the transition section (15) contains a wire filament (20) consisting of windings placed against one another. A stiffening wire (25) extends through the wire filament (20), said wire extending onto the adjacent shafts (10,12).
