<p>The invention concerns an electrically conductive lead suitable to be implanted in a human or animal body. The lead comprises a proximal end portion designed to be attached to a device and a distal end portion comprising at least one electrode member (12) for emitting and/or sensing electrical signals. The lead also has an elongated body extending between said proximal end portion and said distal end portion. The distal end portion comprises at least one cavity (26) having an opening (28) arranged such that the cavity (26) is open to the exterior of the distal end portion. A drug dispensing member (30) is located in the cavity (26). The drug dispensing member (30) constitutes or comprises a gel that includes a drug, which is adapted to be released into said human or animal body. The invention also concerns a method of producing such a lead.</p> |
