Abstract: A transcutaneous portal arrangement including a portal body having a bottom wall with a through-passing opening or transit for accommodating a catheter. A tubular element that fits in the portal body includes an end-portion which is inserted into the end-portion of the catheter. A clamping structure clamps the end-portion of the tubular element against the bottom wall around the through-passing opening so as to sealingly clamp the outer wall and the inner wall of the catheter around the edge of the opening and around the periphery of the tubular element, respectively.
