At what size do you remove a minimally complex liver hepatic cyst

I had the hepatic cyst removed on June 4. The surgeon took out the portion of the skin of cyst which was not in contact with the liver. This way I had none of the liver removed. I am able to breathe deeper than before. I did not realize how much my breathing was restricted. Best wishes to all.

July 9, I had my 9cm x 8 cm x 9 cm cyst drained.. 340 ml removed and 40 ml of alcohol placed inside with drain for 1 hour to kill cyst. 3 days later I'm in the ER with severe liver pain and spasms. After a CT scan I was told the cyst was at 7.5 cm and had fluid. So it looks like my procedure was not successful. The fluid was benign thankfully. I'm meeting with the liver specialist on 7/17.. in 2 days. I'm going to mention your procedure to see if they can do this. My cyst is mostly in my healthy liver so they can't remove it completely. Was your procedure laparoscopic? At a Mayo Clinic and if so, where? If you have any recommendations, please let me know.
