THE LIVER POSSESSES THE UNIQUE ABILITY TO REGENERATE WITHIN A short period.1-3 This feature has led to the development of innovative strate- a gies in liver surgery and transplantation. The anatomy of the liver is paramount in considering advances in hepatic surgery. The liver is divided into eight segments (Fig. 1). In healthy adults, the liver weighs about 1.5 kg (3.3 Ib).4 The blood supply of the liver is carried through two major vessels, the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The portal vein carries a large volume of venous blood to the liver from the I. gut, pancreas, and spleen, permitting hepatic processing of ingested and absorbed nutrients, among many other functions of the liver. The hepatic veins empty into the inferior vena cava.
