Abstract:
The present invention relates to a direction-controllable drug injection catheter. According to the present invention, provided is the catheter extending along a central axis “A” including a drug injection part in which a drug injection channel has been formed; a channel opening and closing means which opens and closes the drug injection channel; and a steering structure which is rotationally asymmetric with respect to the central axis “A” and varies according to a pressure change of the drug injection channel for the purpose of steering.
