Diagram of a cross section of a single liver lobule. The sinusoids are represented only in the left half of the diagram in order that the relations of the bile capillaries may be clearer on the right: ah, branch of hepatic artery; an, anastomosis between two branches of the hepatic artery; db, intrahepatic bile duct; 1, lymphatic vessel; Ic, lymphatic capillaries; s, sinusoids; vc, central vein; vp, branch of portal vein. converge into the tributaries of the intrahepatic bile ducts which accompany the arteries and veins between the lobules and in turn unite to form the hepatic ducts. Lymphatic capillaries occur between the lobules but do not penetrate them. It is claimed that between the endothelium of the sinusoids and the hepatic cells there is an extremely thin film of tissue fluid which seeps out to the periphery of the lobule and is there absorbed by lymphatic capillaries, but some authorities deny Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Bensley, B.
