Just in case of ...? I do not usually think of surgeons having the mentality of 'I was in the neighborhood... so.... yeah, why not!'.
Well, they were fiddling around with my intestines, moving them around (I have / had intestinal malrotation) and they told me that it could be an issue if they didn't remove it.
Although they told me afterwards, but the surgeons were extremely competent so I don't question their judgement.
