A method and system for treating Hepatitis C includes using an implantable pump and an outlet catheter. A proximal end of the outlet catheter is fluidly connected to an outlet port of the pump. A distal end of the outlet catheter is sized to deliver medication from the pump to a liver of living organism, preferably a human being. By delivering medication directly to the liver the effects of the antiviral therapeutics are enhanced, and the impact of Hepatitis C infection is reduced.

L~invention concerne un procédé et un système de traitement de l~hépatite C comprenant l~utilisation d~une pompe implantable et d~un cathéter d~évacuation. Une extrémité proximale du cathéter d~évacuation est connectée de manière fluidique à un orifice d~évacuation de la pompe. Une extrémité distale du cathéter d~évacuation est dimensionnée pour pouvoir administrer un médicament provenant de la pompe dans le foie d~un organisme vivant, de préférence un être humain.
