  • Title: Hepatic surgical anatomy.
    Author: Skandalakis JE, Skandalakis LJ, Skandalakis PN, Mirilas P.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 2004 Apr; 84(2):413-35, viii. PubMed ID: 15062653.
    Abstract:
    The liver, the largest organ in the body, has been misunderstood at nearly all levels of organization, and there is a tendency to ignore details that do not fit the preconception. A complete presentation of the surgical anatomy of the liver includes the study of hepatic surfaces, margins, and fissures; the various classifications of lobes and segments; and the vasculature and lymphatics. A brief overview of the intrahepatic biliary tract is also presented.
