Internal Organs

Three times life-size, this vinyl-plastic model replicates the pancreas, duodenum, gallbladder, spleen, and kidneys with adrenals. Dissections of the pancreas, duodenum and gallbladder let you trace the pancreatic, cystic and bile ducts. Major blood vessels including the portal vein are depicted.

59 hand-numbered structures are defined in the accompanying key. Model pivots on hardwood stand.

On this model the spleen is shown drawn away from the left kidney to expose its renal surface. The peritoneum is removed except over the spleen. The pancreas is shown somewhat lower than normal.
