Abstract The ultrastructure of the mitochondria of hepatocytes was studied under normal and pathological conditions. Restoration of the ultrastructure of swollen mitochondria with a translucent matrix was shown to be completed within 24 h in rat and chick hepatocytes during embryogenesis. One method of intramural regeneration of the mitochondria in hepatocytes of chick embryos and of mice poisoned with CCl4 twice a week for five months whas shown to be clasmatosis of the damaged fragments of mitochondria, their removal through the partially destroyed outer membrane of the mitochondrion, and subsequent restoration of the integrity of the outer membrane. The process of regeneration of the mitochondrion after clasmatosis of its fragments takes two days in chick embryonic hepatocytes.
