ABSTRACT:
A disposable device for inserting one or more implants, the device including a tublar cannula (10) having a tip (11), the cannula also serving as a container for the implants, a plunger (20) and a handle (30) having a first end (31) directed towards the cannula, and a second end (32) directed away from the cannula. The plunger and handle are attached or attachable to each other in fixed manner, and the cannula is arranged to be movable in the longitudinal direction, so that the plunger is placed within. The cannula can, after inserting the implant or implants, be drawn on top of the plunger (20) so far that tip (11) becomes covered by handle (30) or by a piece connected to handle (30), and/or cannula (10) is, when drawn to its extreme position, towards second end (32) of handle (30), arranged to be irretrievably locked in relation to plunger (20).
