I will have surgical debulking guided by ultrasound, The problem is one of the tumors is close to the Portal vein and the right hepatic vein also passes through this bifurcation. We discussed potential complications like bile leakage in which I will need a tube inserted. I will be in the hospital about 6 days which seems long. I am more nervous about this surgery than I was the removal of my lung. I am a retired nurse so I know complications do happen but if this surgery buys me more years I will take the risk...
