The re-entry catheters employ deflectable struts to stabilize 5 and support the distal tip in a subintimal location while a passageway back into the true lumen is formed. Re-entry to the true lumen can be effected with a cutting element or with a conventional guidewire. 8947421_1 (GHMatters) P104369.AU.11/4 10 18"., 24 20 F 1.~2 2 1 2 6 3 16 22 26 FIG. 1 10 26 FIG. 2 10 124 20 12 226 FIG. 4 FI0 2 20 30 16 FIG. 5 FIG. 520 24
