preop blood work and liver enzymes?
MANY of us had fatty liver pre-op. That's one reason so many surgeon's recommend a pre-op diet (many just liquids, others different plans) to shrink the liver and to give yourself a headstart by decarbing and not having post-op carb withdrawal (headaches).
Edit: Sorry didn't answer your question, I had lap surgery my surgeon said my liver had shrunken significantly. It is a possibility that surgery can be converted to open from lap.
