Fig. 96. the posterior edge of the hver, called the posterior notch, whei'eby the liver is adjusted to the verte- bral column. The anterior and poste- rior notch divide the liver into tico lobes, the right of which is much the larger and thicker, and the left terminates in a thin cutting edge. The under surface of the liver presents a di^e^ fissure called umhilical or longitudinal, which reaches from the anterior*^ to the posterior*'' notch, and contains the remains of the umbilical vein, now the ligamentum teres, and the remains of the ductus venosus. Sometimes this fissure is converted into a fora- men,'' the right and left lobes being connected. At right angles to this fissure, is another called the transverse fissure,^^ which contains the portal vein, hepatic artery, and hepatic duct, bound together by cellular tissue, which is called the capsule of Glisson. A deep de- pression upon the under surface of the right lobe of the liver, paral- lel with the longitudinal fissure, contains the gall-bladder ;*° that portjon of the liver included between this depression and the lon- gitudinal and transverse fissures is called the lohuhis quadratus^ or quartus, from its shape. The lohuhis spigelii* is a small triangular lobe at the posterior and inferior portion of the liver, and with the.
