it is the circulation of blood through the vessels supplying the abdominal viscera; it consists of :
- celiac artery :
- 3 main branches : common hepatic + splenic + left gastric arteries
- it supplies the 'foregut'
- superior mesenteric artery :
- 3 main branches : iliocolic + right colic + middle colic arteries
- it supplies the 'midgut'
- inferior mesenteric artery
- 3 main branches : left colic + sigmoid + hemorrhoidal arteries
- it supplies the 'hindgut'

What vein can drain the transverse colon if the superior mesenteric vein is blocked?

Is the portal confluence composed of superior mesenteric vein or inferior mesenteric vein and splenic vein?
AnswerThe portal confluence is the area where the superior mesenteric vein and the splenic vein meet. They run posterior to the pancreas and form the portal vein.
What is the superior mesenteric ganglion?
The Ganglion is a fusion of nerves when defined in common terms. Superior means Above, Mesentric- Intestine(large), Ganglion (brain in the earth worm) In the upper part of the superior mesenteric plexus close to the origin of the superior mesenteric artery is a ganglion, the superior mesenteric ganglion. The superior mesenteric ganglion is the synapsing point for one of the pre- and post-synaptic nerves of the sympathetic division of the autonomous nervous system. This nerve goes on to innervate part of the large intestine.

What are the three veins that form and empty the hepatic portal vein?
The hepatic portal vein is created by the anastamoses between the superior mesenteric vein and spleinc vein. It is arguable that the inferior mesenteric vein joins at this same anastomoses but generally it actually joins the splenic vein which then meats the sup. mesenteric vein as stated above. The veins that drain into the portal vein (ie above the ansastmoses between the splenic and sup. mesenteric) are the cystic vein, the right gastric vein and the posterior-superior part of the pancreaticoduodenal vein.
What does the inferior mesenteric vein drain?
The Inferior Mesenteric Vein (iMV) drains into the splenic vein. The splenic vein ultimately "meets up" with the Superior Mesenteric Vein (SMV) to form the Hepatic Portal Vein (HPV)
What vessels are bilaterally symmetrical?
Superior mesenteric vein
