Zusammenfassung:	A package 10 for a medical device such as an intermittent catheter has a case 12 which is closed at one end and open at the other end. A cap 14 is connected to the case by a hinge 16 to permit selectable movement of the cap between an open position, wherein access is provided to the open end of the case, and a closed position, wherein the cap prevents access to the open end of the case. A seal 18 is connected to one of the cap and case. The seal is engageable with the other of the cap and case when the cap is closed to form a barrier that maintains a sterile environment inside the package. The seal can be repeatedly made and broken whenever the user closes or opens the cap, respectively.
