I'm very sorry the link I left isn't helpful.

I actually don't usually post here. I saw your worried msg and responded the best I could after your second post and saw you were online but had received no responses.

In the section on "complications" it mentions why there may be need for extra incisions. I was trying to point out that sometimes with these minimally invasive surgeries of any kind, there may be a need to make an extra incision. As I said earlier my daughter was only supposed to have a certain number of incisions with her kidney removal, but ended up with more.

I was not aware until you just posted that the incision is in fact 2 inches long, which is a long incision and not typical.

For a Surgeon assistant to respond to your query about the extra incision by saying

Quote:
the third incision is for Dr. _____ thumb placement this way your bowel movements remain intact without being touch
is unprofessional and doesn't make sense. Bowel movements?

Anyway,

I hope someone will see your posts that has similar surgery and can offer you more help.

All the best to you with your recovery.
