The Transverse fissure is the short and deep fissure, about twoinches in length, through which the hepatic ducts, hepatic artery,and portal vein enter the Uver. Hence this fissure was consideredby the older anatomists as the gate (porta) of the liver; and thelarge vein entering the organ at this point, the portal vein.

The Fissure for the gall-Uadder is a shallow fossa extendingforwards, parallel with the longitudinal fissure, from the right extre-mity of the transverse fissure to the free border of the liver, where itfrequently forms a * The under surface of the li\er. 1.
