The study was conducted on three pig livers collected from local slaughter house. Normal saline was
injected to flush the portal vein. For cast preparation, 10 g of orthoplast powder and 20 ml of cross-linked
orthoplast denture material was mixed. The blue colour was imparted by adding asian blue paint. The solution was
stirred to attain honey like consistency. The blue solution was injected in portal vein. Then the organ was allowed
to set for 4-6 hours and then transferred to conc. HCL. As tissue was dissolved in HCL, the cast was removed and
washed with water. The study revealed the ramification of portal vein within the parenchyma of liver.
