The
liver is a vital organ of the digestion system present in vertebrate and some
other animal. It has a wide range of function including detoxification, protein
synthesis and production of biochemicals necessary for digestion.

The
liver is necessary for survival, there is currently no way to compensate for
the absence of the function in long-term although new liver dialysis techniques
can be used in short-term. The liver is a gland and play a major role in metabolism
with numerous function in human body including regulation of glycogen storage,
decomposition of red blood cell, plasma protein synthesis hormone production
and detoxification. It lies below the diaphragm in the abdominal pelvic region
of the abdomen. It produces bile and alkaline compound which aids digestion and
the emulsification of lipids.

The
liver is highly specialized tissues consisting of mostly hepatocytes regulate a
wide variety of high volume bio-chemical reaction including the synthesis and
breakdown of small and normal vital function (Maton et al., 2003)

The
liver is a reddish brown organ with four lobes of unequal size and shape. It is
a soft pinkish brown triangular organ and the largest internal organ. It is
located in the right upper quadrants of the abdominal cavity resting just below
the diaphragm to the right of the stomach and overlies the gal bladder.

The
liver is connected to two large blood vessel one called hepatic artery and the
other called the portal vein. The liver acts as a support to almost every organ
in the body because of its strategic position and multidimensional functions,
the liver is also prone to many disease (Maton et al., 2003).
