ABSTRACT
The success of any surgical intervention on the liver and bile ducts is totally dependent on a thorough working knowledge of their anatomy. As more and more patients are now being considered for liver resection this anatomy should now be within the understanding of all surgeons with an interest in the gastrointestinal tract. Furthermore, a command of this anatomy is a prerequisite for any interpretation of radiological studies and other imaging of pathology within the liver and biliary system.
