“…The study of the three-dimensional (3D) spatial distribution of the vasoductal elements can be carried out by: ( i ) classical dissection [ 32 , 40 ], ( ii ) by making and examining corrosion casts [ 41 ], ( iii ) by making two-dimensional plastination preparations followed by 3D reconstruction of anatomical structures and [ 42 , 43 ]; ( iv ) by modern imaging methods, of which MDCT angiography is the easiest method [ 19 , 20 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 38 , 44 ].…”

“…-Type II (17 casts, 10.25% of cases) in which from the ombilical part of the left branch arise three LBrs with two subtypes: -Type IIA (4 pieces, 2.500% of cases) in which from the ombilical part of the left branch arise three LBrs: two superior LBrs -for segments II and IIa, and one inferior LBr -for segment III ( fig.1 C); -Type IIB (13 pieces, 8.125% of cases) in which from the ombilical part of the left branch arise three LBrs: one superior LBr -for segments II, and two inferior LBrs -for segments IIIa and III ( fig.1 D). [18][19][20] and the corrosion casts [2,8,9,14,21]. In the case of parenchymal organs, the corrosion casts most closely outline the three-dimensional distribution of vascularductal elements.…”

The liver segmentation is mainly determined by the intraparenchymatous distribution of the vascular and ductal hepatic elements; from this, the hepatic portal vein (HPV), is the most important afferent element. The lateral branches (LBrs) are serving left lateral division (LLD) of the liver and present a moderate morphological variability. On a total of 160 pieces of liver corrosion casts, one examined the intraparenchymal distribution of portal LBrs and the segmentation of LLD. Regarding the intraparenchymal distribution of the portal branches in the LLD of the liver, we showed two distinct morphological types: Type I (89.375% of cases) in which from the ombilical part of the left branch arise two LBrs; Type II (10.25% of cases) in which from the ombilical part of the left branch arise three LBrs. Knowledge of these morphological types of portal LBrs is important for clinical and surgical practice.

“…The standard method for producing 1–3 mm thick E12‐plastinated sections (Sora et al, ; Sora and Matusz, ), pioneered by von Hagens, is carried out by freezing a fresh tissue sample and cutting sections with a band‐saw; the tissue loss is in the order 0.9 mm per slice (von Hagens, ) (Figs. and A, B).…”

“…A different technique is used for plastinating ultra‐thin sections, between 0.3 and 1.0 mm (Sora and Matusz, ). In general, 3–5 mm sections are used for descriptive and morphometric analysis, and ultra‐thin sections (<1 mm) for three‐dimensional reconstruction or histological examination (Cook, ; Gruber et al, ; Sora et al, , ).…”

E12 sheet plastination: Techniques and applications

et al. 2017

Plastination is an anatomical technique that consists of replacing the liquids and fat of specimens by reactive polymers through forced impregnation in a vacuum. These are then polymerized to achieve the final result. E12 sheet plastination involves epoxy resin impregnation of thin (2-4 mm) and ultra-thin (<2 mm) tissue sheets, producing dry, transparent, odorless, non-toxic and long-lasting sheets. E12 sheet plastination techniques were reviewed using MEDLINE, EMBASE and SciELO databases, and manual searches. After searching, 616 records were found using the online and manual searches (MEDLINE, n: 207; EMBASE, n: 346; SciELO, n: 44; Manual search: 23). Finally, 96 records were included in this review (after duplicates and articles unrelated to the subject were excluded). The aim of this work was to review the E12 sheet plastination technique, searching for articles concerning views of it, identifying the different variants implemented by researchers since its creation by Gunther von Hagens, and to identify its applications from teaching and research in anatomy to morphological sciences.
