Foetus liver section. Light micrograph of a transverse section through the abdomen of a human foetus,at a level just below the diaphragm. The spine is at upper centre,and the ribs (purple) are seen around the outside edge of the body. The intercostal muscles are between the ribs. The body cavity is filled mainly by the liver (pink),which has large hepatic arteries,hepatic veins and hepatic-portal veins (pink ovals at centre). The dark pink,small round spot below the spine is the aorta. Below the aorta is the oesophagus. To the left of the aorta is part of the stomach.
