The duration of chemoport use before the event of dislodgement varied from 2 months to 102 months. Non-functioning chemoport was the most common presentation. Totally, six cases were managed successfully by loop snaring, three cases by paediatric cardiology team, and three cases by interventional radiology team. One case was managed surgically during chemoport removal.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1047951120001390_as4\" sec-type=\"other\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fracture and migration of chemoport catheter is a rare complication of uncertain aetiology and with potentially serious consequences.
