I read that the liver has been known to crack when they are trying to pull it out of the way. I know the pre op diet helps make the liver more floppy.

Does anyone know how often liver cracking occurs?

Cracking is really just bruising, your liver doesn't crack, it can get bruised and bleed.

Here is a youtube video which shows a r-n-y procedure in which the liver is discussed.
