Sad, seems the guy had a small cyst on his spleen and probably didn’t even need surgery.

Mostly successful surgery.

According to medical records, the surgeon apparently did not realize his mistake at the time of the surgery and proceeded with labeling the removed liver specimen as a “spleen.” After the procedure, Shaknovsky told Beverly Bryan that the “spleen” was so diseased that it was four times bigger than usual and had “migrated” to the other side of Mr. Bryan’s body.
