Each májlebeny is organized around a central vein. Radiating outwards from this central vein are cords of
At the periphery of each májlebeny, at the corners of the hexagonal structure, are portal triads. A
The intricate arrangement of hepatocytes, sinusoids, and blood vessels within the májlebeny is crucial for the
