A hub device and a method for reception of a flexible elongate device therethrough are provided. The hub device includes a proximal portion having a substantially cylindrical opening defined in the proximal portion, a first connector at a proximal end of the proximal portion for connecting to a medical device and a distal portion connectable to an elongate shaft. The hub device further includes a lumen extending from the cylindrical opening in the proximal portion to a non-cylindrical cross-sectional lumen portion in the distal portion of the hub device, the lumen including a distal tapered portion tapering to the non-cylindrical cross sectional lumen portion. The distal tapered portion includes a first pair of longitudinal loop guides positioned on opposite sides of the lumen and configured to receive and collapse a loop of an elongate device received and distally advanced through the lumen.
