The most surprising organ in the body. Man, that thing is huge! You really don't realize just how huge it is until you see it in its natural state in the abdominal cavity with the other organs. The stomach is nothing compared to this baby! What with the medial lobes and the lateral lobes and the gallbladder attached at the top, it really takes over! I always pictured it as such a puny little thing...cute, almost. I can tell you this much; I will never take my liver for granted again.
