Introduction
• Digestive system
consists of
– GI tract
– Glands and accessory
organs : Salivary glands,
Liver ,Gall bladder,
Pancreas
Liver
• Largest organ in body 1200-1600 gm
• Surface projection

Rt. & Lt. hepatic arteries carry
oxygenated blood (25%)
Portal vein carries venous blood
(75%) rich in nutrients
Hepatic veins drain venous blood
to IVC
Liver
Anterior vagal trunk
Autonomic nerves
• Symp : Celiac plexus
• Parasymp : Ant. and
Post. Vagal trunks

Liver
Lymphatic drainage of liver
Liver is a major lymph-producing organ
(1/4 -1/2 of lymph → Thoracic duct)
•
Diaphragmatic surface of liver drains
to Phrenic nodes
•
Visceral surface and deep lymphatics
along portal triads drains to Porta
Hepatis → Hepatic nodes → Coeliac
nodes → Cisterna chyli → Thoracic
duct

Gallbladder & Biliary tracts
Gallbladder & Biliary tracts
Biliary system consists of
1. Gall bladder
2. Biliary tracts
Cystic duct, hepatic ducts,
common hepatic duct and
common bile duct
Gallbladder
• Length 6-10 mm.
• Capacity ~ 45 cm3
• b/t Rt. lobe & Quadrate
lobe of liver
• Surface projection

Portal venous system
• A system of venous blood
vessels from GI tract to
the liver
• Formation :
– Superior mesenteric
vein + Splenic vein
(behind neck of
pancreas)

Portal venous system
Portal hypertension
•
•
•
The portal vein provides about 75% of the liver's
blood flow and about 60% of its O2 supply
Normal portal pressure is 5-10 mmHg (7-14 cm
H2O), which exceeds inferior vena caval pressure
by 4-5 mm Hg (the portal venous gradient)
Higher values are defined as portal hypertension
Portal venous system
Portal-Caval Anastomosis
Anastomosis among portal vein and systemic vein
(Inferior vena cava)
1. Left gastric v.→ Esophageal v.→ Azygos v. → SVC :
‘Esophageal varices’
2. Splenic v. → Sup. rectal v. → Rectal venous
plexuses → middle & Inf. Rectal v. → → → IVC :
Dilated rectal venous plexuses = Internal
