La segmentation hépatique : trucs et astuces pratiques

Venous hepatic segmentation in dogs (Canis lupus familiaris—L. 1758)

“…That differential path determined at embryogenesis allowed the identification of hepatic venous segments distinct from portal segments, like once done by Uršic et al., (2007, 2014). The comparison of our results to the descriptions presented by other authors (Fasel & Schenk, 2013; Fischer et al., 2005; Germain et al., 2014a, 2014b) indicates that the most common variations can be explained through the observation of larger samples in different mammal species with lobated livers; at that time, the question once made by Hjortsjö may finally be answered.…”

“…Despite the consistent advances in the comprehension of mammalian liver morphology, the hepatic segmentation of carnivores remains controversial due to the absence of a precise anatomical systematics that contemplate a great number of species (Schmidt & Suter, 1980). The dog liver is externally divided by deep fissures into six well-defined lobes (Barone, 2010;Hermanson & Lahunta, 2019;König & Liebich, 2016;Nickel et al, 1973), and its vascular trunks can be identified by medical imaging techniques (Carlisle et al, 1995;Cossu et al, 2001;Germain et al, 2014aGermain et al, , 2014b. The lack of conceptual consistency and a satisfactory anatomical language complicates the determination of hepatic segments in different types of livers; this hinders hepatic resection procedures, their safety and favourable prognosis in animals (Majno et al, 2014).…”
