Preparado anatómico de la cara visceral del hígado humano para evidenciar las ramas de la vena porta hepática aplicando las técnicas de repleción, disección y conservación Laskowski / Anatomical preparation of the visceral aspect of the human liver to demonstrate the branches of the hepatic portal vein applying the Laskowski filling, dissection and conservation techniques

RESUMEN El curso de anatomía humana es crucial en la formación de los estudiantes de medicina y, debido a ello, la escasez de preparados anatómicos significa una dificultad en la enseñanza. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo realizar un preparado anatómico de la cara visceral del hígado que permita visualizar las ramas de la vena porta hepática mediante la aplicación de las técnicas de repleción, disección y conservación Laskowski. En el preparado, se logró visualizar la distribución de las venas suprahepáticas y las ramas de la vena porta que irrigan sus respectivos segmentos, sin encontrar variantes anatómicas. Mediante este trabajo, se logró crear un preparado anatómico que permite visualizar principalmente las ramas de la vena porta hepática. Se recomienda realizar una inspección de la pieza anatómica antes de realizar el trabajo y realizar pruebas para determinar la cantidad adecuada de tinte vegetal a utilizar.

ABSTRACT The human anatomy course is crucial in the education of medical students, and therefore, the shortage of anatomical specimens poses a challenge in teaching. This study aims to create an anatomical preparation of the visceral surface of the liver, allowing visualization of the branches of the hepatic portal vein using the repletion, dissection, and Laskowski preservation techniques. The preparation successfully revealed the distribution of suprahepatic veins and branches of the portal vein irrigating their respective segments, without encountering anatomical variations. Through this study, successfully, produced an anatomical specimen primarily showcasing the branches of the hepatic portal vein. It is recommended inspecting the anatomical specimen before commencing the work, as well as conducting tests to determine the appropriate amount of plant dye to use.

Techniques for anatomical preparation of dried viscera and angioarchitecture of cranial mesenteric artery branching of dogs and cats / Técnicas anatômicas de preparação de vísceras secas e de angioarquitetura para visualização da ramificação da artéria mesentérica cranial em cães e gatos

Background: The study of the arterial vascularization of the abdominal cavity viscera is essential on the process of learning anatomy. For authors, various anatomical techniques can be used for the preservation of structures, allowing the exploration and visualization of the organs shape in many different ways. Among the techniques there is the angioarchitecture of viscera, with or without the utilization of formaldehyde. The aim of this paper is to describe a technique for anatomical preparation of the intestines (small and large) of dogs and cats using dried viscera and angioarchitecture, to facilitate the study and visualization of the cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries branching.Materials, Methods & Results: Twenty pieces of intestine of dogs and two of cats were used. The intestine was removed from the duodenum to the cranial portion of the rectum, the root of the mesentery was sectioned as well as the cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries. The part was washed, then the caudal and cranial mesenteric and pancreaticoduodenal arteries were ligated, latex was injected in the cranial mesenteric artery and the sample remained immersed in a 10% acetic acid aqueous solution. The cranial portion of the rectum was ligated and, through a cannula into the duodenum, air was insufflated until the viscera were distended. Following that, the part was positioned and fixed, exposed...(AU)
