@DrMarkCorkum @DrSteveMartin @BrendonStilesMD @MontefioreNYC @StephenVLiu @JeffBradleyMD @DoctorJSpicer @IsaOpitz @MARIANOPROVENCI @peters_solange @FordePatrick @finn_corinne @DrJNaidoo Risk of surgical morbidity/mortality is certainly an important part of the equation here, but it’s not clear to me how you’ve arrived at a mortality risk of “3-5%? More?”

The ACS NSQIP risk calculator predicts operative mortality of 1.3% for this patient.
