Liver transplantation is an effective therapy for the end-stage disease of hepatopathy . Partial right lobe liver transplantation is a good way to enlarge source of supplied liver. Because of the complex of the construction within livers, it was limited in some district to perform partial right lobe liver transplantation in the world, especially to perform partial right lobe liver transplantation with living donor. Partial right lobe liver transplantation deals with followed as: evaluating quality of donors' liver,calculating volume or weight of grafts , anatomy,separation,cutting and reconstruction of the branches of hepatic arteries, bile ducts ,portal veins. Each of the procedurs is the key factor which is dued to good quality of life to receiptors.The donor giving partial right lobe liver not only suffers operation ,but also experience baptism that he or shi carries out duty of family and society,endurs a lot of mind stress ,realizes his or her in individual worthiness.China is a area where hepatic diseases are prevalent. Many patients need to receive liver transplantation because of end-stage hepatic diseases whereas there are not enough donors providing livers. The aim of this study is to provide the applied anatomy for surgical treatment of living-related liver transplantation combined with some specific partial right lobe liver transplantation with observing the rule of construction of the inner liver and out.Materials and methods 1. The gross anatomic construction of the arteries, bile ducts, portal veins andhepatic veins were studied in 41 fresh adult livers, 43 formalin-fixed adult cadaver livers and 91 adult liver casts.2. In 41 fresh adult livers and 43 formalin-fixed adult cadaver livers, the followed items were studied:(l).The number of branches , maximum diameter ,the whole length ,the length outside livers, the courser , confluence, the diameter in the wall of IVC,the spots where hepatic veins inpour ,the angles between IVC and hepatic veins ,the angles between falciform ligaments and hepatic veins, the distance between the diaphragm muscle and hepatic veins; The number and diameter of right-retro-infra short hepatic veins, the number of superior border hepatic veins on the right and the left of livers, the diameter and the length of retro-IVC, intra-IVC, the diameter and the length of the branches of middle hepatic veins entering cholecystic bed, the shortest distance of the branches of middle hepatic veins entering cholecystic bed and cholecystic wall, the excursioning degree of middle hepatic veins from middle hepatic fissura,the distance between right hepatic veins and middle hepatic veins.(2).The length, diameter .number and courser of portal veins' main branch,right branch,right anterior branch, right anterior superior branch, right anterior inferior branch, right posterior branch, right posterior inferior branch, right posterior inferior branch,the angle between the right branch of portal vein and the left branch of portal vein,the distance between the liver and the place where the right branch of portal vein and the left branch of portal vein forms confluence.(3).The length, diameter and courser of common hepatic artery, right branch of hepatic artery, proper hepatic artery ,right posterior branch,the confluence type of the right branch and the left branch, the angle between the right branch of hepatic artery and the left branch of hepatic artery ,the distance between the liver and the place where the right branch of hepatic artery and the left branch of hepatic artery forms confluence.(4).The length, diameter and courser of common bile duct, common hepatic duct, right branch of bile duct, right posterior branch,the confluence tipe of the right branch and the left branch, the angle between the right branch of bile duct and the leftbranch of bile duct ,the distance between the liver and the place where the right branch of bile duct and the left branch of bile duct forms confluence.3.The name ,number,diameter, the place of ducts on planes were calculated in 8 formalin-fixed adult cadaver livers that were choosed from 43 formalin-fixed adult cadaver livers after the livers were cutted down according to the operation way of amplificated right semi-liver transplantation, right semi-liver transplantation, right posterior lobe liver transplantation respectively.4.The calculating methods: electron slide gaud, stainless steel rule, compasses were used to calculate the diameter,the length and angle .5.The statistics' methods:All datas were analyzed with SPSS 11.5.

The diameter of artery, bile duct, portal vein branch in cuts was 0.05±0.00cm, 0.05±0.00cm,and 0.21±0.03cm respectively. The Glisson number in VI segment and in V segment was 0.38±0.52 and 0.38±0.52 respectively.(2).The branch number, the diameter and in which segment of hepatic vein branches in sections were followed as: The branch number and the diameter of hepatic vein branches was 1.88±1.13 and 0.38±0.16cm respectively. The number of hepatic vein branch in VI segment and in V segment was 1.00±1.31 and 0.88±0.64 respectively.8. The space position of the three ducts in the first porta hepatis were followed as: Generally, the front of right portal vein faced right hepatic artery, And the front of right portal vein faced right hepatic bile duct. When the Glissons1 sheath was cut down, the three ducts would be seen. After the Glissons' sheath entered liver parenchyma, there would be many different ways of the space position of the three ducts.9. The space position of the three ducts in the pedicel of posterior right lobe were followed as: Posterior right hepatic artery sent out superior posterior right hepaticartery, inferior posterior right hepatic artery on the anterior inferior of posterior right portal vein. Superior posterior right hepatic artery went around the superior of posterior right portal vein to the right and arrived posterior right liver lobe. Inferior posterior right hepatic artery went to the right anterior. Superior posterior right bile duct and inferior posterior right bile duct formed posterior right bile duct that went to the left almost paralleling posterior right portal vein on the back and that passed by it and converged by right bile duct on the posterior superior of right portal vein.Main conclusionl.The rates of types about hepatic vein, bile duct and hepatic artery this study are markedly different from that reported in foreign literature. This infers that the rates of types in Chinese are different from foreigners.2.The rates of types about hepatic vein, bile duct and hepatic artery this study are advantageous to partial right lobe liver transplantation.3.Most of types about hepatic vein, bile duct and hepatic artery this study are fit for partial right lobe liver transplantation.4.1t is much helpful for ensuring donors safety and promoting operation to succeed when partial right lobe liver transplantation carried through that the infrequence types about hepatic vein, bile duct and hepatic artery are found in time and dialed with correctly.5.Microsurgical technique is useful to reconstruction to the artery branch and bile duct branch and accelerates success on operation of recipients, as the artery branches and bile duct branches are small when partial right lobe liver transplantation carried through.6.1t is key factor that if surgeons are familiar to the anatomy of liver determine whether partial right lobe liver transplantation carry out or not. Because the anatomy of liver is complex.7. Most of middle hepatic veins are not in the plane formed by liver middle fissure and Most of middle hepatic veins are right excursion from liver middle fissure. The right excursioning degree of middle hepatic veins from middle hepatic fissure is14° .
