Abstract
The invention relates to a needle bolder, for use in combination with a syringe and a needle, characterized in that the needle holder is provided with an expandable element and with retention means for the expandable element, so that contact of the expandable element with an injection causes expansion of the expandable element and, as a consequence retraction of the needle into the needle holder. The invention relates too to a syringe comprising said needle holder.
