  • Title: Hepatectomy in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). A preliminary study.
    Author: Sanz A, Garcia M, Cardenete G, Zamora S.
    Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol A Comp Physiol; 1982; 71(2):329-32. PubMed ID: 6121656.
    Abstract:
    1. Partial hepatectomy (25% of liver mass removed) has been performed on rainbow trout using a procedure allowing a high level of survival. 2. The liver regeneration was complete from the point of view of liver weight, at the 30th post-operative day. 3. During the first weeks after surgery, the NH-excretion rate in both hepatectomized and shamoperated trout was higher than in intact controls. Likewise, the food intake was lower in the operated animals. 4. Both facts can be attribute to the stress situation caused by the surgical manipulations rather than the removal of the liver.
