Anatomy of
liver
Situated
in
the right
upper
quadrant of
the
abdominal
cavity.
Shape-- like a
cone,
Colour-- dark
reddish-brown
Weight--
The liver
occupies the
whole of the
right
hypochondriu
m, the greater
part of
epigastrium
and extends
into left
hypochondriu
m.
Lobes

Caudate
Quadrate
Gallbladder
Thin-walled
green
muscular sac
On the inferior
surface of the liver
Stores bile that is
not immediately
needed for
digestion
When the
muscular wall of
the gallbladder
contracts bile is
expelled into the
bile duct

of sensitivity to a medication
may occur on the first day of its use or not
until several months later, depending on the
medication.

Prothrombin
Prothrombin
time is dependent
upon both hepatic synthesis of
clotting factors and intestinal
uptake of vitamin K (fat soluble
vitamin)
The
Prothrombin time
Prolonged :
vitamin K deficiency
(malnutrition,
malabsorption, antibiotics)
massive transfusion

The
It is very important to
normalize the INR before
operating on people with liver
problems.
It is usually done by
transfusion of blood plasma
containing the deficient factors .
Hepatitis
B Immunoglobulin
(HBIG)
HBIG provides passive immunity
and is indicated along with
Hepatitis B vaccine in management
of
perinatal/occupational/sexual
exposures to Hepatitis B in
susceptible individuals. The dose of
HBIG in adults is 0.06 ml/kg and in
neonates/infants 0.5 ml.

It is very important to normalize the INR
before operating on people with liver
problems.
In addition to local measures like use of Ab
gel/ Surgicel, Tranexamic acid (Pause)
