The five fissures of the liver are all situated on its undersurface. They separate the five lobes from one another. Theyare :— 1. Longitudinal fissure (fossa longitudinalis sinistra) ex-tends from before backward, from the notch in front to theposterior border. It is sometimes called the umbilical fissure(fossa vencB umbilicalis), and lodges the round ligament, theremains of the fetal umbilical vein. 2. Fissure for the ductus venosus (fossa ductus venosi) is u. ^#\
