Liver necklace | sterling silver
The largest internal organ a metabolic hub that processes nutrients from digestion, synthesises plasma proteins, detoxifies drugs and metabolites, and produces bile.
The Anatomy of the Liver
The liver is divided into right and left lobes by the falciform ligament, and further into eight functionally independent Couinaud segments based on their portal vein, hepatic artery, and hepatic vein supply. This segmental anatomy is what allows hepatic surgeons to resect individual segments without compromising the rest of the organ. The liver receives a dual blood supply: 75% from the portal vein (nutrient-rich blood from the gut) and 25% from the hepatic artery. Blood drains to the hepatic veins and then to the inferior vena cava. The liver's functional unit the hepatic lobule contains hepatocyte cords radiating from a central vein, with portal triads (portal vein, hepatic artery, bile duct) at the periphery.
