Abstract
The intrahepatic biliary tract is comprised of a complex network of conduits that are essential in the transportation and formation of bile with components needed for fat digestion and absorption as well as the elimination of catabolised compounds. Derangements in this system can have dangerous sequela that affects morbidity and mortality. This review aimed to summarise clinically relevant updates on intrahepatic biliary disorders in dogs including human corollaries.
