Agree that laparoscopically would be ideal, though not sure that is an option with other extenuating factors. Hoping upcoming 2nd opinion at 2nd facility will be more reassuring. Thank you.

Not sure I understand - with laparoscopic surgery - since it is only done at advanced centers - you get the best care.

What could be so extenuating you would not want the best care?
