Material Detail

Educational Video created by Dr. Sanjoy Sanyal; Professor, Department Chair, Surgeon, Neuroscientist and Medical Informatician in the Western Hemisphere.

It shows the surgical anatomy of the Liver, Portal triad, common bile duct, hepatic artery, portal vein, harvested from a cadaver, at a level of surgical dissection that is rarely seen in real-time videos or in the dissection lab.

Several important surgical correlations are also described. Incidentally, if you look closely from 5.03 to 5.26 minutes, you can see one Paraumbilical Vein just next to the Round Ligament of Liver near the liver itself, which I forgot to mention in my narration. This communicates with Superficial Epigastric Veins around Umbilicus and forms the Caput Medusa in Cirrhosis with Portal Hypertension.

Real-time narration and relevant captions enhance the learning experience by means of a trimodal learning style approach - Visual, Auditory, Textual.

Camerapersons were many, notably Sahiya, using my Samsung Galaxy S8, with its 8 MP forward and 12 MP rear camera.
