Anomalies of Foetal Liver in South Indian population: Case Study
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
We have observed liver anomalies in two aborted foetuses during routine dissection for the medical undergraduates at Sri Venkateswara Medical College, Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. We have observed one foetus with tongue like projection in left lobe and in other case ligamentum teres tunnel with extended left lobe. Multiple internal congenital anomalies like absence of left lung, microtia on left side and other congenital anomalies were also observed. The larger left lobe is almost equally sized or more than the right lobe considered as accessory lobe of Liver which is in agreement with the previous literature. Anatomical variations in the human liver could be valuable in improving diagnostic procedures and pathological conditions associated with some liver diseases.
