THE LIVER

 

The liver is the largest solid organ in the body. It is located in the upper right-hand portion of the abdomen, protected by the ribs. It lies beneath the diaphragm and on top of the stomach, right kidney, and intestines (Figure 1). The liver is dark, reddish-brown and weighs approximately one and a half kilograms (3 pounds).

 

Location of the liver

 

The liver is divided naturally into two parts, the right and left lobes. It is held in position by its connections to major blood vessels and other organs, which lie close by. The blood vessels include the inferior vena cava, a large vein that takes blood from the lower part of the body, runs behind the liver and up through the diaphragm into the heart. Other blood vessels include the hepatic artery and portal vein and these are described a little later. The liver is attached to the diaphragm and other organs by ligaments (bands of tissue) (Figure 2).

 

more about the liver:

 

The liver is the only organ in the body to have a double blood supply. Oxygenated blood flows in from the hepatic artery and a nutrient-rich blood flows through the portal vein from the gut. The blood drains from the liver through three hepatic veins (right, middle and left) directly into the inferior vena cava. The liver holds about 13 percent of the body's blood supply at any given moment.

 

Anatomical division of the liver

 

The hepatic artery and portal vein divide inside the liver into eight segments (parts of the liver), which are numbered from 1-8.
