leak and dr wants to remove my stomach

I have not read anywhere about loosing your stomach with a leak. Has anyone had that experience? I have a abscess on my spleen and it is right beside the leak so they are "communicating" and therefore there is no improvement in my case. Cannot find any info on the net about fixing a leak that way.

I ended up with emergency surgery. Leak reappeared and spleen abscess reactivated. My surgery was 5.5 hours. The stomach leak was fixed. Spleen fused to liver and pancreas so my spleen was removed along with a small piece of liver and pancreas. Due to the way sleeve was done they were able to just snip off a leakey piece of stomach. So far i am doing good.
