Woohoo! Infamy!  Actually, I'm rather sorry about that (Glisson's 
capsule, included in a bonus on the liver which I wrote).  In my 
defense, the other two parts were "cirrhosis" and "portal vein," 
which were more gettable.  I knew I should have asked about the 
common bile duct instead.  Damn you, "Gray's Pocket Anatomy."  I'm 
pretty sure I received my karmic punishment for anything wrong with 
the science in the Illinois packet when on a tossup earlier in the 
tournament, I inexplicably buzzed in with "Laplace" when I knew the 
answer to be "Lagrange."
