Abstract |
Liver anatomy has been extensively studied throughout the evolution of surgical techniques for the liver including transplantation. With the advent of split and living donor transplantation, there has been an obligation for a more detailed re-evaluation of liver anatomy. Though the anatomy of individual lobes of the liver has been described meticulously, the anatomy of segment 4 has never been explained previously. We have aimed to describe in detail, the anatomy of segment 4 with its implications in hepato-biliary surgery and liver transplantation with the notion that a sound understanding of the anatomy will give rise to technical innovations during surgery and thereby decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with these complex surgical procedures.
