A Study on Intersegmental Septa

DEZSO KASSAY M.D.1 and ZOLTAN LABAS M.D.

1 The Chevalier Jackson Clinic, Temple University Medical Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

With anatomical, experimental studies the authors found that the intersegmental septa are not plane, as they have been described, but uneven and bumpy like basalt rocks. The irregular surfaces of the pentagon-shaped lobuli of the neighbouring segments were found to protrude and fit into each other as a cast fits to the pattern. Utilizing these observations the authors have created a more lifelike segmental model and have given the explanation for some surgical and x-ray observations.
