فقدان الوزن
A preoperative diet such as low-calorie diets or very-low-calorie diet, is usually recommended to reduce liver volume by 16-20%, and preoperative weight loss is the only factor associated with postoperative weight loss. Preoperative weight loss can reduce operative time and hospital stay. although there is insufficient evidence whether preoperative weight loss may be beneficial to reduce long-term morbidity or complications. Weight loss and decreases in liver size may be independent from the amount of calorie restriction.
