Liver of Pig

Liver of Pig

Liver of Pig is Relatively large from Liver of Ox

It is divided into five lobes, viz., right lateral, right central, left central and left lateral, which is the largest lobe and a small caudate lobe. The gall bladder is placed in a depression on the right central lobe

The diaphragmatic surface is highly convex. On the upper part of the right lateral lobe is the caudate lobe. No renal impression exists, as the right kidney does not touch the liver

The cystic duct joins the hepatic duct at an acute angle. The bile duct opens at the papilla duodeni about one or two inches from the pylorus
