He explained that often during surgery, the organ or tissue of concern would be sent to pathologists, and whether or not it was cancerous would dictate how the remainder of the operation and treatment would go. The doctor shared: „It’s very likely that the surgical team knew or had a good sense of what this was going to be prior to surgery.”
