Dr Mrs Parveen Ojha, Dr Mrs Seema Prakash

Abstract :

Accessory fissures and lobes of liver can be a source of error during various diagnostic radiological procedures and a correct diagnosis requires awareness about these and advanced imaging techniques. Moreover, variations like Riedel�s lobe can undergo malignancy. This study was done on 75 cadaveric liver specimens in the anatomy department of RNT Medical College, Udaipur to study variations in fissures and lobes of liver. Accessory fissures, Riedel�s lobe, a large left lobe enveloping spleen and small gall bladder fossa, hypoplastic left lobe, pons hepatis were the few variations noticed.
