The cystohepatic (Calot) triangle is a triangle in the porta hepatic with the boundaries:
- right: the cystic duct which is often tortuous and has a beaded appearance, passes downward and to the left to join the common duct
- left: common hepatic duct
- superior: the inferior surface of the liver (in the original description by Calot the superior boundary is the cystic artery)
