Fig. 5B. Hepatic venous anatomy in potential liver donor, 24-year-old man. Axial portal-venous-phase CT images were acquired at 60 sec with 2.5-mm collimation and table speed of 15. Volume-rendered axial image obtained through upper liver reveals adequate contrast opacification of right (R), middle (M), and left (L) hepatic veins. Note intimate relationship between middle and left hepatic veins. Because of this intimate relationship, surgeons prefer not to include middle hepatic vein in right hepatectomy.
