abstract |
The invention concerns a device to be implanted in an accessible subcutaneous zone of the body of a patient in order to constitute a chronic injection site of a liquid, in particular a therapeutant. This device includes an injection chamber (12) bounded by an integral rigid case (11) provided for that purpose with a recess of rounded, concave shape; the case (11) is provided around the recess with a rim (13) on which is impermeably fixed the rim of an elastic membrane (14) which in its rest state is essentially plane. A catheter (17) is connected to the injection chamber (12) and issues into the deepest part of the recess forming this chamber. |
