AbstractAim: The aim of the present study was to assess the morphometry of liver and its clinical implications.Methods: The study consisted of 50 forma line fixed cadaveric liver of unknown age and sex selected from theDepartment of Anatomy. Morphological features of the liver were studied and discussed under the followingparameters. All the measurements are taken in inches using a measuring tape. Vertical and transverse diametersof Right lobe, left lobe, caudate lobe, quadrate lobe of the Liver was taken. Fissure, accessory lobe and externalsurface of the liver were observed in detail and variations were noted.Results: The mean measurement across the vertical dimension was 6.36 inch and transverse dimension was 8.2inch. Fissures were seen in the caudate, quadrate, right and left lobe of the liver. Caudate lobe, Quadrate lobe,right lobe, left.Conclusion: The wide range of occurrence of morphological variations will contribute to the evolving documentof liver morphology and ultimately will be helpful for anatomists. Additionally, this may aid interventions andsurgeons to plan hepatobiliary surgeries, liver transplantation, and maximize targeted approach and curtailconfusion, thereby mitigating morbidity.
