Anatomical Variation of Ligamentum Teres of Liver - A Case Report
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Variations related to the liver are frequently encountered. This case reports the variant course of ligamentum teres present and its attachment along the inferior margin of falciform ligament which was embedded in a tunnel formed by the liver parenchyma. It also reports a complete absence of the quadrate lobe. This knowledge can be fruitfully utilised by anatomists, embryologists, radiologists and surgeons respectively for academic interest, to avoid possible errors in interpretation and subsequent misdiagnosis, and to assist in planing an appropriate surgical approach that is crucial for determining the patient outcome.

Variations in arterial anatomy are less frequent, contrary to the venous system, and most of these variations affect visceral arteries. Variations in the brachial artery are the most frequently reported and so far a minimum of six different patterns have been described. The most common of these patterns is the superficial brachial artery, which lies superficially to the medi...

Right-sided ligamentum teres (RSLT) is a rare congenital anomaly often accompanied by variation of the hepatic vasculature. We herein report a surgical case of a hilar cholangiocarcinoma with RSLT in whom preoperative hepatectomy simulation proved useful for understanding the anatomical structure of the liver. A 78-year-old male with obstructive jaundice was referred to our department for furth...

The liver can present a number of congenital anomalies. More common among them are the irregularities of the shape and the number of lobules. The less common variations include the presence of accessory lobes or accessory livers. The accessory lobes may be attached to the liver through a mesentery or a bridge of the hepatic tissue and they are usually asymptomatic. An accessory liver lobe is a ...

Attachment of falciform ligament, fissure for ligamentum venosum and ligamentum teres divide it in to right and left lobes. Quadrate lobe is the part of right lobe although functionally related with left lobe [1]. Caudate lobe occupying post...
