| Summary: | A description is given of the gross anatomy supplemented by radiographic studies of the abdominal
structures of (T. javanicus). The large sacculated stomach complex is the dominant feature of the abdomen,
it occupies most of the left side and extends across to fill the ventral right side. The intestine is
primarily relegated to the dorsal caudal quadrant immediately cranial to the cranial pelvic aperture. The
multilobed liver lies entirely on the right. The kidneys are not lobed, with the cranial pole of the right
kidney abutting the caudate lobe of the liver and the left kidney lying adjacent but immediately caudal
to its fellow. The small triangular spleen lies on the dorsal cranial aspect of the dorsal sac of the rumen. |
