That's a bastard.
I'm sorry you're going to have to go under the knife again. That's hard mentally and physically.
I was hoping for better news.

Re: Implant is stuck what to do
It's better to vent in here than out there aimed at a close person. I understand what your saying though, I'd be verrry disappointed as well 2 weeks after! Honestly i probably would be looking for another dr. if your not in any immanent problems at this time, but thats me, you do what is best for you, gl.

Re: Implant is stuck what to do
Uneducated opinion here. I'm thinking that many of the systems hold around 100cc's, give or take. So if the leak was in the pump or the implant I would think you'd notice the fluid in your sack. No guarantee on this theory. So I'm betting he thinks the reservoir leaked based along this line of thinking.
I've quickly looked over your post history. I don't see any mention of your surgeon or his experience. How did you choose him? Best of luck to you. Btw, many times they're willing to place a new reservoir & leave the old one in place. I would suggest that he should go into good detail about what his plans are. I honestly do feel bad for you.

Re: Implant is stuck what to do
Sorry to hear that, Drod 8889.
You may also need to know if the doctor used a preconnected implant or non-preconnected. If it is preconnected, the leak could be due to a system fault, or could still be the surgeon's. An experienced implant surgeon won't make such a mistake.
I suggest to ask your doctor about this, and also get in contact with the AMS representative in your area and get let them get involved. Someone should be accountable for this.
The best scenario is the replacement of the reservoir only, without messing with the implant area. I don't think tissues are already built around the reservoir yet. So, replacing the old one would be a good idea.
I am not doctor. This is just my opinion.
