A medical assembly, preferably a sterilized one, includes a medical article (5) and a package containing the article, the package including a hollow support element (2) inside which the article (5) is free, a first protective element (3), called a stopper, which can be coupled to the support element (2) of the article, such that the support element (2) has a grip part (20) that protrudes from the stopper (3), and a second hollow protective element (4), called a cover. The cover can be coupled to the stopper (3) in such a way as to delimit, in cooperation with the stopper (3), a chamber (8) inside which there extends the grip part (20) of the support element, and, in the state when the cover is coupled to the stopper, a part of the stopper (3) protrudes from the cover (4).
