title: Accessory sulcus of the liver - an incidental laparotomy finding.
abstract: The diaphragmatic surface of the liver is normally smooth but may be grooved occasionally. Such grooves could be 'cough furrows' or due to a 'corset liver'. Accessory sulci have also been described and may confuse the inexperienced surgeon. We describe one such case of an accessory sulcus found incidentally at laparotomy.
