A catheter includes a tubular body having a channel having its ends
opening out respectively at the ends of the tubular body, injector
element for injecting fluid into the channel, a tubular endpiece having a
channel with ends opening out respectively at the ends of the tubular
endpiece, and element for connecting the endpiece and the body together
so that the end of the channel and the end of the channel are in
alignment on an axis, the connection element being constituted
essentially by a ring that partially covers the body and the endpiece,
and being also arranged in such a manner that the connection can be
broken by exerting a force couple of predetermined value respectively on
the endpiece and on the body. The invention is applicable to safety
catheters for performing endovascular treatments by injecting embolic
fluid, for example for treating arteriovenous malfunctions.
