DEVELOPMENTAL ANATOMY OF NASOLACRIMAL DUCT

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1952
As A PART of the scientific exhibit of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, in 1950, I reviewed the developmental anatomy of the nasolacrimal duct. At that time, and since, I have been repeatedly asked for reprints of, or references to, the literature on this subject.

Anatomy of the gallbladder and bile ducts

Surgery (Oxford), 2023
The biliary system or biliary tract is an elaborate system of coalescing channels which transports bile from the liver to the second part of the duodenum. The biliary system is divided for descriptive purposes into intrahepatic and extrahepatic parts.

Anatomy of the gallbladder and bile ducts

Surgery (Oxford), 2020
Abstract The biliary system or biliary tract denotes the elaborate system of coalescing channels which serves to transport bile from the liver to the second part of the duodenum. Bile is an alkaline liquid produced by the hepatocytes, partly as a secretion and partly as an excretory product.

Current status of endoscopic ultrasound‐guided antegrade intervention for biliary diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy

Digestive Endoscopy, 2022
Endoscopic management of biliary diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy can be challenging because the altered anatomy makes it difficult to insert an endoscope into the biliary orifice.

Surgical Anatomy of Common Bile Duct

Archives of Surgery, 1964
Introduction The common bile duct is a relatively short and deep structure in the abdomen, running in close relation to numerous organs, which thus militate against its easy examination at operation. For this reason the operative diagnosis and removal of stones in the common bile duct pose problems.

The Cystic Duct: Normal Anatomy and Disease Processes

RadioGraphics, 2001
The cystic duct can be depicted with a variety of imaging modalities but is optimally visualized with direct cholangiography or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. Nevertheless, unrecognized anatomic variants of the cystic duct may cause confusion on imaging studies and complicate subsequent surgical, endoscopic, and percutaneous procedures ...

Functional anatomy of human lacrimal duct epithelium

Anatomy and Embryology, 1998
Resorption of tear fluid in the lacrimal ducts has hitherto been controversial; one reason for this has been insufficient knowledge of the anatomical structure and function of the lacrimal duct epithelium. The present study analyzes the structure of lacrimal duct epithelium by means of histological, histochemical, immunohistochemical and ...

Anatomy of the gallbladder and bile ducts

Surgery (Oxford), 2011
Abstract A detailed knowledge of the gallbladder and bile ducts (together with their anatomical variations) and related blood supply are essential in the safe performance of both open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy as well as the interpretation of radiological and ultrasound images of these structures. These topics are described and illustrated.

Development and Anatomy of the Bile Duct

2017
The bile duct system is a pathway of bile transportation from the liver to the intestine and plays a role of exocrine function of the liver. It consists of two different types of epithelial cells, hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. Anatomically as well as developmentally, the bile duct could be divided into intrahepatic bile duct (IHBD) and extrahepatic ...

Radiographic and gross anatomy of the nasolacrimal duct of the horse

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1984
SUMMARY The anatomy of the nasolacrimal duct of the horse was studied grossly and radiographically, using barium contrast dacryocystorhinography and methyl methacrylate casts. Radiographic contrast studies were performed on 4 specimens and gross dissections were performed on 6 specimens.
