Abstract: A method for both disposing an agent in a body organ, preferably a sexual organ, of a human or animal and retrieving a fluid sample containing the agent from the body organ of the human or animal, utilizing a percutaneous access port. A portion of the percutaneous access port is implanted in a body organ of the human or animal and connected to the body organ so that fluid communication exists between the body organ and the fluid chamber of the percutaneous access port, wherein the fluid chamber is not percutaneously implanted. An agent is disposed in the fluid chamber of the percutaneous access port, and flushed to the organ. At a later time, a fluid sample containing the agent is withdrawn from the fluid chamber, and the amount of the agent in the sample is determined.

Abstract: A percutaneous access port for providing access to a selected organ in an animal which includes a base assembly and a septum assembly. The base assembly has a fluid chamber formed in a portion thereof generally between an upper and a lower end of the base assembly with an inlet port being formed in a portion in the base assembly gnerally near the lower end of the base assembly. The inlet port is adapted to be connected to the selected organ to provide communication between the fluid chamber in the base assembly and the selected organ. At least one access port is formed through the upper end of the base assembly with each access port extending a distance through the base assembly and intersecting the fluid chamber to provide communication between the upper end of the base assembly and the fluid chamber. The septum assembly includes a portion which extends across each access port in the base assembly to resealably seal each access port, each access port providing resealable access to the fluid chamber.
