Event or Problem Description
A risk manager reported an issue with a 8f low profile plastic vortex port detached poly catheter filled sh valved introducer.The port was implanted with 2-0 pds sutures, by a thoracic surgeon.When the patient presented for an infusion, the port was unable to be accessed; therefore, the patient was transferred to intervention radiology for a portogram.The results of the portogram were dictated as follows: "catheter check of right-sided subcutaneous port demonstrates normal course with patency.Slight angulation of the port reservoir and mobility within the port pocket suggests potential intermittent port flipping." subsequently, the patient had to undergo an additional surgery to have the port removed and replaced.
