dc.description.abstractExamination of the liver of Tilapia nilotica has shown that classical hepatic circulatory organization is not present in this animal, hepatocytes are densely distributed throughout the organ in plates of two cells in thickness. Sinusoids are lined with a fenestrated endothelium, the openings of which are closed by a thin diaphragm. Also present within the organ, surrounding the major hepatic portal veins, is a second type of basophilic, granular tissue, the function of which is unknown.
