sunsett 2 Posted January 31, 2006 Has anyone on here ever had this? I know the port leak is not rare. Just wanted some info if you've got any. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanetC 2 Posted January 31, 2006 My surgeon told us about the 1 band that he had leak (of the 200 surgeries he's done). It wouldn't hold saline. They attempted to fix the leak without removing it, but literally couldn't find the leak, even after inserting dye. Eventually they did a revision & replaced the band with a new one that held the saline. It's the only band he's ever removed... and he replaced it the same day. I didn't ask if they found the leak once it was out, lol. Sorry I don't have any first hand knowledge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
