The present invention is a kit for preparing a medical catheter from catheter sections which are short relative to the length of the catheter. The catheter is divided into two or more sections configurable into two configurations. In one configuration, the sections are joined to form a catheter of a greater length than the length of each individual section. In the other configuration, the length of the catheter is reduced. The invention also relates to a method of producing a catheter section by injection moulding. Linvention concerne une trousse de préparation dun cathéter médical à partir de parties de cathéter qui sont courtes par rapport à la longueur du cathéter. Ce cathéter est divisé en au moins deux parties qui présentent deux configurations possibles. Dans une configuration, les parties sont assemblées pour former un cathéter dune longueur supérieure à celle de chaque partie individuelle. Dans lautre configuration, la longueur du cathéter est réduite. Linvention concerne également un procédé de production dune partie de cathéter par moulage par injection.
