The therapeutic agent delivery assembly is also translatable relative to the housing from the deployed configuration to a retracted configuration. The system further includes a user input that is actuatable to translate the therapeutic agent delivery assembly from the stowed configuration to the deployed configuration. The system further includes a retraction mechanism that is actuatable to translate the therapeutic agent delivery assembly from the deployed configuration to the retracted configuration.
