Which of the following vessel provide maximum blood supply to the liver?
Correct Answer: Poal vein
Description: 70% of the blood to the liver is carried by poal vein. Hepatic aery carries 30% of the blood to liver. Hepatic aery provides oxygenated blood to the liver and poal vein brings venous blood rich in products of digestion. The aerial blood on reaching the liver is conducted to central vein of each liver lobule by liver sinusoids. The central vein then drain into right and left hepatic veins which inturn leave the posterior surface of the liver and open into inferior vena cava. Ref: Clinical Anatomy by Regions By Richard S.
