The Caudate lobe is one of the four lobes of the liver and is located on the posterior aspect of the right lobe. It is a triangular-shaped lobe that is bordered by the inferior vena cava on the right and the porta hepatis on the left. The caudate lobe receives blood supply from the hepatic artery, portal vein, and hepatic veins. It also plays an important role in the synthesis and storage of glycogen, which is the stored form of glucose in the liver. Additionally, the caudate lobe is associated with the regulation of bile flow and is responsible for the secretion of bile into the common bile duct. Diseases or disorders affecting the caudate lobe can lead to liver failure, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and even liver cancer.
