Abstract: An thin walled elongated hollow lumen medical device structure comprised at least in part of a cylindrical flexible circuit. The cylindrical flexible circuit is configured in such a way to carry at least part of the device structural loads and therefore reduce the medical device total wall thickness. An exemplary embodiment of the invention structure comprises a hollow lumen medical catheter where a flexible circuit comprises the entire inner lumen and the outer lumen is comprised of a polymer extrusion.
