Blood supply
Dual- venous blood via portal vein and
arterial supply by hepatic artery: both vessels enter the liver at the
hilum or porta hepatis 75-80% of blood supply to the liver
comes from portal vein, which carries oxygen-poor blood from digestive tract, pancreas and spleen
![Page 30: Lies mainly in right hypochondrium and epigastrium, extending into part of left hypochondrium Increases in size rapidly, achieving maximum size](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110101/56649ef05503460f94bffeed/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The portal blood carries
Nutrients and toxic materials absorbed in the intestine
Blood cells and breakdown products of blood cells from the spleen
Endocrine secretions of the pancreas and enteroendocrine cells of GIT
![Page 31: Lies mainly in right hypochondrium and epigastrium, extending into part of left hypochondrium Increases in size rapidly, achieving maximum size](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110101/56649ef05503460f94bffeed/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The hepatic artery carries oxygenated blood from the liver, providing 20-25% of its blood supply
Blood from 2 sources gets mixed before it perfuses the hepatocytes
The distributing branches of portal vein and hepatic artery supply the sinusoidal capillaries that bathe the hepatocytes
![Page 32: Lies mainly in right hypochondrium and epigastrium, extending into part of left hypochondrium Increases in size rapidly, achieving maximum size](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110101/56649ef05503460f94bffeed/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The sinusoids are in intimate contact with the hepatocytes and provide for exchange of substances between blood and liver cells
The sinusoids lead to a central vein, that in turn opens into the sublobular veins
Blood leaves the liver through hepatic veins, which empty into the IVC
