English to Greek translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Instruments / catheters

English term or phrase: sleeve

Context:
We have received a small number of complaints that the white flexible *sleeve*/tip became detached from the metal stylet during use. The detached white flexible tip may remain in the patient resulting in potential injury and the need for possible medical intervention.

This refers to a ureter catheter. Is "sleeve = θηκάρι"?
