Rajani1*, H.S. Patki2, K.P. Surjith3, S. Patgiri4, P.M. Deepa5 and D. Abraham6 Department of Veterinary Anatomy and Histology College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Pookode Wayanad-673 576 (Kerala) Received: 05 June 2020; Accepted: 06 June 2020 ABSTRACT The study was conducted on liver collected from an elephant calf and 5 adult domesticated Asian elephants. After recording gross morphological features, liver samples were processed for routine histological procedures. Liver had four borders viz., dorsal, ventral, left lateral and right lateral. Caudal vena cava crossed the dorsal border and the ventral border had a deep umbilical fissure. Parietal surface presented straight line of attachment of Falciform ligament and an inverted arc-like coronary ligament. Visceral surface had a wide hepatic porta and attachment of lesser omentum. Liver had two chief lobes: a larger right lobe and an undivided left lobe. The round ligament was attached to the right medial lobe. Liver did not adhere to right kidney. Gall bladder was absent. Liver showed dense Glisson’s capsule. The hepatic lobules were indistinctly delineated and irregularly hexagonal. Radiating, branching laminae of hepatocytes and intervening anastomosing sinusoids constituted the parenchyma. Small squamous endothelial cells and large Kupffer cells lined the sinusoids. Portal triads were observed at the periphery of the lobule. The present study established the morphological and histological characteristics of liver in Asian elephant. Key words: Asian elephant, Morphology, Histology, Liver, Hepatocytes Anatomical features on viscera of wild animals are diaphragm. It had firm texture and had a reddish brown limited. Morphology of liver had been reported in foetal colour. Surface of liver presented distinct lobation. The elephant (Mariappa, 1985). Thitaram et al. (2018) liver from a female elephant calf of about two months old described in brief on microscopic structure of liver in had a weight of 1.5 Kg and the weight in adult elephants juvenile elephant. Salient information on morphology and was 30-35 Kg. Liver had two surfaces namely cranial histology of liver in Asian elephant is scarce. Hence, the (parietal) and caudal (visceral) surfaces (Figs. 1, 2). In present study was envisaged to ascertain the unique gross situ, the parietal surface of liver was strongly convex in and histological features of liver of elephant. both transverse and dorso-ventral direction as described by Mariappa (1985) in elephant calf. Its visceral surface MATERIALS AND METHODS was concave especially at the hepatic porta where it was The study was conducted on liver of an elephant deeply concave. However, when the organ was removed calf and 5 adult domesticated Asian elephants died due to from the body, it flattened and lost its exact shape. The natural causes in Central Kerala. The specimens were liver as a whole had four borders viz., dorsal, ventral, left collected during post-mortem examination. Permission for lateral and right lateral. The dorsal border was concave, the conduct of the study was obtained from Chief Wildlife and the caudal vena cava crossed obliquely along its mid- Warden, Kerala as per order no KFDHQ-915/2019- length.

On the visceral surface, attachment mainly on right lobe. The porta enclosed large, thin portal of lesser omentum extended from the oesophageal notch vein; thick hepatic artery and a bile duct. A chain of 8-10 and encircled the hepatic porta. lymph nodes of various sizes circumscribed the hepatic The deep umbilical fissure that divided the liver into porta (Fig. 3). The nodes varied in size from few mm to 2- two chief lobes: a larger right lobe and an undivided left 3 cm. The lymph nodes were round to oval, elongated or lobe (Figs. 1,2). The undivided left lobe resembled a hemi- strip-like in outline. Right and left lobes of liver had their circle. The right lobe as a whole was bean shaped. Further, own hepatic ducts which combine to form the main hepatic a wide notch of right lobe indicated its division into right duct. Gall bladder was absent as recorded by Mariappa (1985) in elephant foetus and Sreeranjini et al. (2011) in medial and right lateral lobes. Lobations of liver in general sambar deer. However, gall bladder is recorded in wild agree with the descriptions of Mariappa (1985) in elephant animals such as leopard cat (Rajani et al., 2012) and black foetus which indicated that lobations had not undergone buck (Verma et al., 2015). much structural variations with age.

  • Comparative Anatomical Studies on the Fetal Remnants in Donkey (Asinus Equus) and Camel (Camelus Dromedarius)
    IOSR Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Science (IOSR-JAVS) e-ISSN: 2319-2380, p-ISSN: 2319-2372. Volume 11, Issue 5 Ver. I (May 2018), PP 12-21 www.iosrjournals.org Comparative Anatomical Studies on the Fetal Remnants in Donkey (Asinus Equus) And Camel (Camelus Dromedarius) Nora, A. shaker and Samar M. EL Gammal Department of Anatomy and Embryology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University Abstract Aim: The present study described the anatomical structures of the umbilical cord, fetal circulation and their remnants in the adult. This work will help veterinary practitioners in diagnosis of the abnormalities of these umbilical structures in newly born foals and camel calves. Material and methods: it was applied on five specimens from donkeys and camels; three aborted feti and two apparently healthy adults. Fetal specimens were injected with the colored latex in the umbilical veins and arteries then preserved in a 10% formalin solution for two days before dissection. The structures of the umbilical cord and the embryonic structures were identified and photographed. The adult specimens were treated by ordinary routine method of preservation; mixture of 10%formalin, 4%phenol and 1% glycerin for two days then dissected to identify the fetal remnants. Result: The umbilical cord contained four structures in donkey; single umbilical vein, two umbilical arteries and the urachus, while in camel, it contained the same structures but two umbilical veins instead of one. In the adult, these fetal tubes were occluded as the round ligament of liver, round ligaments of urinary bladder and cicatrix on the bladder apex. The other fetal structures were; the foramen ovale and the ductus arteriosus and the paired gubernaculua related to the testes in males and the ovaries in females.

(approximately 2.5% of adult body weight). • Lies mainly in the: • Right hypochondrium, • Epigastrium, and extends into the • Left hypochondrium. • Protected by the thoracic cage and diaphragm, lies deep to ribs 7-11 on the right side and crosses the midline toward the left nipple. • Moves with the diaphragm and is located more inferiorly when one is erect because of gravity. 3 Surfaces of Liver • It has two surfaces: 1. Diaphragmatic surface, convex. 2. Visceral surface relatively flat or even concave, (posteroinferior). 4 Diaphragmatic Surface • The convex upper surface is smooth and molded to undersurface of domes of diaphragm which separates it from the base of pleurae, lungs, pericardium, and heart . • Covered with visceral peritoneum, except posteriorly in the bare area of the liver, where it lies in direct contact with the diaphragm. 5 Visceral Surface • It is the posteroinferior surface, related to abdominal viscera. • It is covered with peritoneum, except at the fossa for the gallbladder and the porta hepatis • It bears multiple fissures and impressions from contact with other organs. 6 Fissures • Two sagittally oriented fissures, linked centrally by the transverse Inferior porta hepatis, to form the letter H Ligamentum venosum vena cava on the visceral surface. • The left fissure is the continuous groove formed: • Anteriorly by the fissure for the round ligament.
