Claim:
1. A method for stabilizing a leaking implanted hydraulic device haying an inner space enclosing a first fluid, wherein said first fluid is solidified through the influence of an initiator added to, or exerting influence on, said first fluid, and wherein at least one of: the stabilizing involves the repair of a leakage of the implanted hydraulic device or parts thereof and wherein the solidified first fluid prevents further leakage of the first fluid with retained function of the implanted hydraulic device, and the stabilizing involves the repair of a leakage of the implanted hydraulic device and wherein the solidified first fluid prevents further leakage of the first fluid and permanently defines the volume and/or shape of the implanted hydraulic device, the method further comprising the steps of: repairing non-surgically the implanted hydraulic, device by, injecting a second fluid from external of the body of a patient, through the skin of the patient, into an injection port, said injection port being comprised in the implanted hydraulic device, and thereby filling the second fluid into the leaking implanted hydraulic device via, the injection port.
