Abstract:
A device for insertion into a body lumen includes an operator unit which may be hand held by an operator. A cannula is operatively associated with the operator unit and the cannula includes two parallel lumens. At least one of two lumens terminates at its distal end before the distal end of the other lumen and wherein one of the two lumens is contained at most partially within the other lumen.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 6 , wherein the operator unit includes one or more controls to manipulate one or more of the optical fiber and to manipulate the one or more of the aspiration and irrigation of materials within the body lumen;\n wherein the one or more controls to manipulate the optical fiber includes a wheel operatively associated with the operator unit which engages the optical fiber to advance the optical fiber within the operator unit; wherein at least two rollers are operatively connected with the wheel, the at least two rollers being engageable with the optical fiber therebetween and wherein movement of the wheel causes the optical fiber to move due to contact with the moving at least two rollers; wherein the at least two rollers are disengageable from the optical fiber such that the operator may manually advance the optical fiber; the method further comprising prior to steps (a) and (b): the operator disengaging the optical fiber from the at least two rollers, then advancing the optical fiber through the optical fiber lumen until the fiber tip exits the optical fiber lumen, then engaging the optical fiber with the at least two rollers and then further advancing the optical fiber using the wheel.
