They should do a leak test before you leave the hospital. Some doctor's do one before you wake up from surgery. I am not 100% sure how they repair one. I think it's a surgical repair. I didn't have one so I can't say for sure.

I did not have a leak. They do a leak test in the OR and post op day 1. (Typically) Having a leak is one of the worst complications you can have, you go to the OR immediately to have it repaired. Can happen weeks after surgery as well.
