Abstract

A syringe with a closure is disclosed. The syringe comprises a needle projecting from a syringe body, the tip of the needle being enclosed by a closure cap when the syringe is in a closed position. A sealing element is provided for sealing the needle in the closed position. The sealing element has an annular, elastically deformable portion that can be sealingly pressed against the outer surface of the needle by means of the closure cap.
