The intra-hepatic bile ducts in hepatic steatosis and in congested livers.

The authors study 25 steatotic or congested livers by means of post-mortem cholangiographies and vinyl moulds of the bile ducts. They show that the bile ducts of these organs present alterations, characterized by stretching, rectification, and lengthening of the intra-hepatic bile ducts, as a consequence of the diffuse hepatomegaly that occurs in the disease. They relate the average number of straight ducts in the intra-hepatic bile tract to the extension of the extension of the disease, obtaining a positive relation. A statistical evaluation of the results was made, allowing objective conclusions.
