Macro- and microangiographic picture of two cases of the liver primary carcinoma

The paper presents the most important features of the macro- and microangiographic picture of the liver primary carcinomata. Arterial ramifications of the liver were injected with a contrast medium - Micropaque, the liver was cut into 0.5 cm thick slices in the vertical and horizontal plane. The angiograms revealed radiological pictures of macroscopic arterial vascularization of the liver. In order to make a microangiographic estimation, the author cut the cubes about 20 X 20 X 5 mm in sizes out of 0.5 cm thick slices. The cubes were cut frozen in a microtome into sections of a thickness 1500 mu. Microangiographic pictures were taken and assessed in 8 X magnification. According to the author, the obtained results present a great cognitive importance and will help in better assessment of angiograms performed in patients with liver carcinomata.
