Was in another forum triying to see how the post op are doing so i did read a coment of a girls saying that she went to surgery and when she woke up from anesthesia was not sleeved!!! Reason: the Liver too big!!!!!!

This is one of my biggest fears!!!!

Sounds hard to believe, because if they couldn't do it laparoscopically, they'd just do it open, in which case the size of the liver doesn't matter. Unless she explicitly refused to sign consent for open surgery in case lap failed.

I wouldn't worry about that too much, I've only ever heard of it happening once or twice in all my various forums.

Don't be scared. It's just a doctor doing what is best for his patient.
