Most of the liver surface is surrounded by visceral peritoneum. However, the Area nuda remains the only peritoneal free, its surface forming the connective tissue capsule. Outside of peritoneal coverage, the three Vv. hepatica usually leave the liver. A peculiarity is that in the liver only the supplying artery and supplying V. portae hepatis and Ductus choledochus run in the Mesohepaticum, whereas the laxative veins do not. At the transients from the visceral to the parietal peritoneum at the underside of the diaphragm, the connective tissue peritoneal epithelium appears as "strand" (Lig. coronarium). From this connective tissue structure a small tip develops on the left hepatic lobe (appendix fibrosa hepatis).
