The liver segmentation is mainly determined by the intraparenchymatous distribution of the vascular and ductal hepatic elements; from this, the hepatic portal vein (HPV), is the most important afferent element. The lateral branches (LBrs) are serving left lateral division (LLD) of the liver and present a moderate morphological variability. On a total of 160 pieces of liver corrosion casts, one ...

Changes in ventricular size and brain parenchyma were documented in 40 preterm neonates with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), who were serially examined for 3 weeks or more. Sonography disclosed a close relation between the severity of the intracranial hemorrhage and the development of progressive ventricular dilatation. Eighty percent of preterm neonates with minor degrees of intracranial hemorr...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects up to 2% of the population per year, and constitutes the major cause of death and severe disability among young people. By far, the most important complication of TBI is the development of an intracranial hematoma, which complicates 25 to 45% of severe TBI cases, 3 to 12% of moderate TBI cases, and approximately 1 in 500 patients with mild TBI (20). Without ...
