Liver is the largest internal organ of the body weighing about 1500g in adults. It occupies the right hypochondrium and extends into the epigastrium and left hypochondrium .
The liver is the largest gland in the human body, weighing approximately 1500 grams. It performs many important functions like absorbing nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract, storing glycogen, and secreting bile. The liver has two lobes - the right lobe, which is the largest, and the left lobe. It is situated in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen and has two surfaces - the diaphragmatic surface and the visceral surface. The liver receives blood from the hepatic portal vein and hepatic artery and is supported by various ligaments.
The document describes the anatomy of the liver including its lobes, ligaments, surfaces, blood supply and drainage. It notes the H-shaped set of grooves on the visceral surface containing the porta hepatis, gallbladder fossa, and ligaments. Practical assignments are provided to study the peritoneal attachments, locate structures in the porta hepatis, and explore the vasculature and innervation of the liver and pancreas.
The duodenum is the shortest and widest part of the small intestine. It is C-shaped and passes behind the pancreas and liver before joining the jejunum. The duodenum has four parts that have different peritoneal relations and visceral connections. It receives blood supply from the pancreaticoduodenal arteries and innervation from the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Common clinical issues involving the duodenum include ulcers, diverticula, obstructions, and inflammation.
The extrahepatic biliary apparatus consists of the right and left hepatic ducts, common hepatic duct, gallbladder, cystic duct, and bile duct. The hepatic ducts emerge from the liver and join to form the common hepatic duct, which then joins with the cystic duct from the gallbladder to form the bile duct. The gallbladder is a reservoir for bile located in the liver that concentrates and stores bile before releasing it through the cystic duct into the bile duct for transport to the duodenum. The bile duct courses through the liver and pancreas, joining with the pancreatic duct before entering the duodenum.
The portal vein collects blood from the abdominal organs and transports it to the liver. It forms from the union of the superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein. It branches within the liver into left and right portal veins which supply the left and right sides of the liver through hepatic sinusoids before draining into the hepatic veins and inferior vena cava.
The liver is the largest internal organ located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. It has two surfaces - the diaphragmatic surface and visceral surface. The liver is divided into 8 segments based on the Couinaud classification which describes the functional anatomy and vascular supply. This allows for resection of individual segments without damaging other segments. The segments are delineated by the hepatic veins and portal scissurae into right, left, caudate and quadrate lobes.

The document describes the anatomy and segmentation of the liver. It notes that the liver is divided into eight functionally independent segments, with each segment having its own vascular inflow, outflow and biliary drainage. It describes Couinaud's division of the liver into a functional left and right liver divided by Cantlie's line, which runs from the middle of the gallbladder fossa to the inferior vena cava. Because of this segmentation, individual segments can be surgically resected without damaging remaining segments.
he spleen is a fist-sized organ found in the upper left side of your abdomen, next to your stomach and behind your left ribs. It's an important part of your immune system but you can survive without it. This is because the liver can take over many of the spleen's functions
The liver is the largest gland in the body, located in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen under the diaphragm and within the rib cage. It has four lobes - two major lobes and two minor lobes - and ducts that carry bile from the liver to the gallbladder and join the pancreatic duct. The liver is made up of lobules containing hepatocytes that radiate outward from a central vein and produce and secrete bile. Blood flows to the liver through the hepatic portal vein and supplies the liver with nutrients and oxygen. The liver performs many important metabolic functions like synthesizing and breaking down substances, and excreting waste from the bloodstream into bile.
The thoracic aorta begins where the aortic arch ends at the fourth thoracic vertebrae and extends down to the diaphragm. It supplies blood to the thoracic cavity and has several important branches including the bronchial arteries which supply the lungs, esophageal arteries which supply the esophagus, and posterior intercostal arteries which supply the spaces between the ribs. The thoracic aorta also gives off mediastinal and pericardial branches before passing through the diaphragm and becoming the abdominal aorta.
The pancreas is a soft, lobulated gland located behind the stomach in the abdomen. It has both exocrine and endocrine functions. The exocrine function involves secreting pancreatic juice to aid digestion. The endocrine function involves secreting insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.
The pancreas has a head, neck, body and tail. The head is located in the curve of the duodenum. The body extends from the neck to the tail, passing toward the left side of the abdomen. The main pancreatic duct drains the exocrine secretions and runs through the pancreas before joining with the common bile duct to form the ampulla of Vater which empties into the duodenum.
Portal Vein and portocaval Anastomosis. Anatomy of portal vein, tributaries, branches and course, formations and relations. Anatomy of portal vein and adjacent structures, their relation to liver and intestine, relation to IVC and Aorta, clinical and applied anatomy for both undergraduates and postgraduates. portal hypertension is an increase in blood pressure, however, rather than being systematic, it's localized to the portal system. Portal hypertension is most commonly caused by liver cirrhosis which in itself can be caused by alcoholism or other liver disease. It can also be caused by blood clots in the portal vein and schistosomiasis amongst other things. This increase in blood pressure can affect areas of anastomosis between the portal vasculature which we just discussed and the caval musculature which are classified as the vessels not relating to the portal system resulting in pressure pushing larger blood volumes into these anastomotic areas. This in turn can cause the vessels to dilate and form varicose veins which can result in potentially fatal hemorrhage. Some of these important porto-caval anastomotic areas are listed below – the first vein being the portal vein and the second vein being the caval vein – the superior rectal and inferior rectal veins, the left gastric and esophageal veins, the colonic veins and the retroperitoneal veins and the para-umbilical and epigastric veins.
In severe cases, the last anastomosis mentioned between the para-umbilical veins which are the small veins that run within the round ligament of the liver and the epigastric veins which are found in the anterior abdominal wall can form large dilations. These dilations can form the clinical presentation caput medusa or the head of the medusa as the dilated veins look like the snakes of the head of the medusa or Gorgon from Greek mythology. In this image on the right, we can only see the beginnings of a presentation of the caput medusa as in a true caput medusa, the veins would be raised and enlarged.
Hello everyone! This is Nicole from Kenhub, and today we're going to talk about the hepatic portal vein.
We are going to discuss the hepatic portal vein and to do so we'll be using this image here which is a ventral view of the portal hepatic vein with the central portion of the liver cut out so we can see the portal vein and other portal vessels. You can also see the aorta just here as well as the inferior vena cava just posterior to the portal hepatic vein. The portal venous system is an important system that has its own unique flow and we'll talk about how this works in tandem with the venous system in the coming slides.
The portal vein is one of the most important vessels in the body.
Its main functions are to direct blood to the liver from the gastrointestinal tract and receive nutrient rich blood from the intestines.
The portal hepatic vein also receives blood from the spleen, the pancreas and the gallbladder which are channels within the vessel.
The caecum is a blind pouch located in the right lower abdomen that connects the ileum to the ascending colon. It stores semi-liquid digestive material and helps absorb fluids and electrolytes. The appendix attaches to its back surface. Blood supply comes from the ileocolic artery. Lymph drains to the ileocolic lymph nodes. Diseases that can affect the caecum include volvulus, intussusception, and diverticulitis.

The liver is the largest solid organ in the body, located in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen. It has five surfaces and weighs approximately 1600g in males and 1300g in females. The liver performs many critical functions, including metabolizing nutrients, producing bile, and filtering blood from the digestive tract. It is supplied by the hepatic artery and portal vein and drains into the inferior vena cava. The liver has two lobes, is divided into segments, and contains lobules that are made up of hepatocytes and sinusoids. Common disorders of the liver include hepatitis, cirrhosis, and jaundice.
The stomach is a J-shaped organ located in the upper left abdomen. It is divided into four regions - the cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus. The pylorus regulates emptying of chyme into the small intestine. The small intestine is further divided into the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. It has modifications like folds and villi that increase surface area for nutrient absorption. The large intestine consists of the cecum, colon, rectum, and anal canal. The liver processes nutrients and secretes bile into the gallbladder for storage and concentration before emptying into the duodenum. The pancreas has both exocrine and endocrine functions, secreting

about movement by contraction.
xMuscle tissue is made up of cells called
myocytes. These usually appear as fibers
known as muscle fibers.
xEach muscle fiber is covered by a
membrane known as sarcolemma and a
cytoplasm known as sarcoplasm.
xCytoplasm of each muscle fiber contains
numerous longitudinal threadlike struc
tures called myofibrils, which are made
up of different types of muscle protein
(mainly actin and myosin).
xIt is also rich in mitochondria and
glycogen, which provide energy for it.
xNumerous mitochondria (sarcosomes)
and endoplasmic reticulum (sarcoplasmic
reticulum) are also seen.
Classification of Muscle
Tissue
Based on the appearance of contractile
cells, the muscle tissue is classified as the
following:
xSkeletal/striated/voluntary muscle/
striped muscle.
xCardiac/involuntary muscle.
xSmooth muscle/involuntary/visceral
muscle.
Skeletal Muscle
xSkeletal muscle is attached to bone and
is responsible for movement of axial and
light microscope; hence, it is called stri
ated muscle.
xSkeletal muscles have limited capacity of
regeneration.
Microscopic Structure (Longitudinal
Section) of Skeletal Muscle
xLongitudinal section of skeletal muscles
shows long unbranched cylindrical
muscle fibers running parallel to each
other (Figs.8.1 and 8.2).
xLength of muscle fiber is variable ranging
from few millimeter to many centimeter.
xEach muscle fiber shows multinucleated
flat oval nucleus located peripherally
underneath the sarcolemma.
xMultinucleated appearance of muscle
fiber is due to the fusion of multiple
myoblasts during the embryonic life.
xThe sarcoplasm contains numerous
myofibrils (Fig.8.3).
xUnder light microscope, myofibrils are
seen as dark and light bands.
xThe dark bands are A-bands (anisotropic
under polarized light) and light bands are
I-bands (isotropic under polarized light).
xStriated appearance is mainly due to the
regular arrangement of actin and myosin
myofilaments.
xThe middle of Aband has a light area
known as Hband.
xThe center of H-band has a dark line
known as M-line.
xThe center of I-band is bisected by Z-line.
xThe area between two Z-lines is called
sarcomere, which is the structural and
appendicular skeleton.
The liver is the largest abdominal organ and glandular organ of the GI system. It is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen and has two main surfaces - the diaphragmatic surface which faces the diaphragm and is convex, and the visceral surface which faces inferiorly and to the left. The visceral surface has an H-shaped pattern of fissures and fossae formed by the porta hepatis and ligaments. The liver is divided functionally into left and right lobes and anatomically into right, left, caudate and quadrate lobes.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

28. FUNCTIONS
• Secretion of bile
• Storage of glycogen
•Synthesizes serum proteins and lipids
•Metabolism of fat
•Storage of iron in the form of ferritin
29. • Carbohydrate metabolism

30. BLOOD SUPPLY
•Liver receives blood from 2 sources :
* The arterial blood is supplied by the
hepatic artery
* The venous blood is supplied by
portal vein.
31.
32. VENOUS DRAINAGE
• Most of the venous blood from liver is
drained by three large hepatic veins :-
- Left hepatic vein
- Middle hepatic vein
- Right hepatic vein
33. NERVE SUPPLY
• The liver is supplied by both sympathetic
and para sympathetic fibers.
•The sympathetic fibres are derived from
the coeliac plexus.
•The para sympathetic fibres are derived
from hepatic branch of anterior vagal
trunk
34. HISTOLOGY
• The liver is covered by a connective tissue capsule
called Glisson’s capsule.
• The liver cells are arranged in plates or cords,
radiating from the central vein.
• Between the plates of cells are blood-filled spaces
called sinusoids.
• Arranged around the periphery of each lobule are
branches of : hepatic artery, portal vein, bile duct.
35.
36. • The oxygenated blood from hepatic artery,
products of digestion and destruction of RBCs
from portal vein sinusoids Central
vein joins to form hepatic veins
Inferior Vena cava.
• Bile is secreted by the hepatocytes , into a
minute channel adjacent to these cells are called
biliary canaliculi. These canaliculi joins to form
larger ducts, finally emerge as Right and left
37. APPLIED ANATOMY
• Inflammation of liver – Hepatitis.
• Fracture of lower ribs or penetrating injury of upper
part of abdomen can injure the liver.
• Hematogenous spread of cancer from other parts of
the body Is very common .
• Enlargement of liver - Hepatomegaly.
• Cirrhosis of liver.
