摘要:
An implantable port system which in at least one embodiment includes a base having an upper surface configured to be positioned under and in contact with a first tissue surface in a body, and a port housing having a lower surface configured to be positioned over a second tissue surface above the first tissue surface. The base and the port housing may be separate from one another and do not contact each other at the time of positioning the base. The base and port may be connected together upon positioning the port in contact with the second tissue surface. A method of implanting a port system may include installing at least a portion of a base of the system beneath a tissue layer in a body, and attaching a port housing to the base at a location above the tissue layer, wherein the port housing is not in contact with the base during the installation of a least a part of the base system beneath the tissue layer.
