Liver Circulation - Flashcard
The liver is supplied with blood by the hepatic artery and the hepatic portal vein
branches of the hepatic artery and the hepatic portal vein distribute blood to the periphery of the liver lobules.
Blood passes along sinusoids, which are lined by hepatocytes, which perform numerous metabolic and synthetic functions.
The processed blood passes into branches of the hepatic vein in the centre of each lobule, and eventually drains into the hepatic vein.
The biliary system is independent of the vascular system and bile moves in the opposite direction to the blood.
Initially it is collected in bile ductules which are surrounded by collagenous tissue, which forms part of the collagenous trabecular septum.
The bile is collected by increasingly large trabecular ducts, which fuse to form intrahepatic ducts which finally drain into the main hepatic ducts.
