At the liilum or porta hepatis this connective tissue is continued into the interior, where it joins the connective tissue of the GJisson's ccqysuh, or the in- terlobular connec- tive tissue (con- nective tissue of the portal canals). This tissue is fibrous, and more or less lamellated ; by it the substance of the liver is subdivided into numerous, more or less polyhedral, solid lobules or acini (Fig. 221), each about 2V of than inch in diameter. According to -A ^s Fig. 221.—From a Section through the Liver of Pig. Five lobules are shown. ' They are well separated from one another by the inter- lobular tissue. {Atlas.) .*, Interlobular connective tissue, containing the interlobular blood-vessels, , the branches of the hepatic artery and portal the inter- lobular bile ducts; i, intralobular or central vein.
