The extrinsic glands of the digestive system include the major salivary glands, the pancreas, and the liver, all of which are located outside the wall of the digestive tract. The major salivary glands consist of three pair of glands: the parotid, submandibular glands and sublingual glands.

The pancreas can be divided into two portion: exocrine portion and endocrine portion. The exocrine portion is a serous, compound tubloacinar gland. The endocrine portion is called pancreatic islet( islet of Langerhans).

The liver is the biggest gland in the body. It can be divided into two main parts: hepatic lobule and portal area. The hepatic lobule includes five components :central vein, hepatic plate(cord), hepatic sinusoid, perisinusoidal space and bile canaliculi.
