When my surgeon explained the procedure to me, he said that he was going to cut on the opposite side too, but what I found out after the fact was that he meant that it was really what I would call the outside. If you picture a tube, with the fissure on the inside, my surgeon made his incision on the outside of that tube, but right outside where the fissure was, and on the same side of my body. Does that explanation make sense?
