  • Title: Some functional consequences of partial hepatectomy in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdnerii).
    Author: Sanz A, Hidalgo MC, Cardenete G, Garcia M, de la Higuera M.

    Abstract:
    A partial hepatectomy (an average of 36% of hepatic mass removed) was performed in rainbow trout. Thirty days after this partial hepatic removal, the liver had recovered its initial weight. During regeneration the remaining liver was unable to maintain normal blood levels of protein, cholesterol and, partially, lipids which decrease after surgery. The results obtained show that functional and liver weight regeneration proceed at different rates throughout a given time course, weight recovering faster than complete functional restoration.
