Yes , but patient need to have good port , and if clog or infected , not unusual , that is a new problem for the patient who need IV treatment .
My mother sister , also a physician had a port , she was on kidney dialysis , I know what she went through , now after kidney transplant this problem is gone from her life .
New surgical intervention needed ,
Most probably many times during entire life , it is VERY difficult...
I will go with SC any day !!!!
