摘要: The present invention provides devices, systems, methods and kits for endoscopically accessing a body cavity providing directed pathway toward target tissue within the cavity. is provided by an access sheath which positioned in desired configuration, generally tissue. Depending on location of angle approach, may be required to maintain one or more curves planes properly direct interventional devices. In addition, has locking feature hold place configuration. Interventional devices then passed through
