| Core Tip |
The upper surface of the liver is usually smooth and convex, but deep depressions are present in 5%-40% of patients. Laparoscopic surgery provides an opportunity to examine the relationship between surface depressions and the diaphragm. This study showed that 51 (12.9%) of 394 patients had prominent surface depressions on the liver. There was significant association between the presence of surface depressions and diaphragmatic muscular bands, giving credence to the diaphragmatic-band theory for surface depressions. |
