Purpose. Thorough understanding of biliary anatomy is required when performing surgical interventions in the hepatobiliary system. This study describes the anatomical variations of right bile ducts in terms of branching and drainage patterns, and determines their frequency. Methods. We studied 73 samples of cadaveric material, focusing on the relationship of the right anterior and posterior segmental branches, the way they form the right hepatic duct, and the main variations of their drainage pattern. Results. The anatomy of the right hepatic duct was typical in 65.75% of samples. Ectopic drainage of the right anterior duct into the common hepatic duct was found in 15.07% and triple confluence in 9.59%. Ectopic drainage of the right posterior duct into the common hepatic duct was discovered in 2.74% and ectopic drainage of the right posterior duct into the left hepatic duct in 4.11%. Ectopic drainage of the right anterior duct into the left hepatic ductal system and ectopic drainage of the right posterior duct into the cystic duct was found in 1.37%. Conclusion. The branching pattern of the right hepatic duct was atypical in 34.25% of cases. Thus, knowledge of the anatomical variations of the extrahepatic bile ducts is important in many surgical cases.

A method is described for measuring the capacity of the normal and of the distended biliary tree. The method depends on the use of dyes rapidly excreted in the bile, which are used as marker substances, and is here applied to rats. The use of an alternative suitable dye, or large alterations in the quantity injected, produced in most cases only small changes in the measured capacities. The measured capacity of both the normal and of the distended biliary tree was found to be proportional to the liver weight, and was altered by an expected amount when a lobe of the liver was functionally removed. The measured extra capacity produced by obstruction of the common hepatic duct was similar to that found using another method. The reliability of the method and some probable errors are briefly discussed. It is concluded that measurements made in this manner might be used to examine the biliary tree during short periods of obstruction.
