Abstract: (8441 Views)
Anatomic variations in forensic extrahepatic bile ducts is common. Knowledge of extrahepatic bile duct variations is important for surgeons in order to prevent iatrogenic damage during surgery. This study aims to determine the variations in extrahepatic bile ducts among 150 cadavers located at the Kerman Medicine Organization. We performed autopsies on 150 cadavers. Bile ducts were exposed and studied to determine their anatomic variants and diameters. We observed anatomic variants of the biliary tree in 7 cadavers (4.6%). In 3 (2%) cadavers, the right hepatic duct was missing, in 2 (1.33%) the left hepatic duct was missing and 6 (4%) did not have a common hepatic duct. In one case the common bile duct was absent. We may conclude that the Variation of bile duct is different in multiple population.
