The Couinaud classification of liver anatomy divides the liver into eight functionally indepedent segments. Each segment = own vascular inflow, outflow and biliary drainage.In the centre of each segment - branch of the portal vein, hepatic artery and bile duct.In the periphery of each segment = vascular outflow through the hepatic veins.
23
Segments numberingThere are 8 liver segments.
Segment 4 is sometimes divided into segment 4a and 4b according to Bismuth.
The numbering of the segments is in a clockwise manner (figure).Segment 1 (caudate lobe) is located posteriorly. It is not visible on a
frontal view.
