A member asked:
Can keyhole surgery still be done if you have a six pack? will the gas in stomach still give the surgeon space to see?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: During surgery, the anesthesiologist gives you a muscle relaxant. Even if you have great abs you can have laparoscopic surgery. Good luck.
