Gastrosplenic Vein joins the Superior Mesenteric Vein and takes blood to Hepatic Portal Vein and delivers blood to liver.
the gastrosplenic vein joins the superior mesenteric vein and takes blood to the hepatic vein
The hepatic portal vein is formed by the union of (a) splenic vein, which drains the spleen, pancreas, greater curvature of stomach and (b) superior mesenteric, which drains the small intestine and ascending colon. The gastric vein, which drains the lesser curvature of the stomach, empties directly into the hepatic portal vein.The hepatic portal vein is formed by the union of (a) the splenic vein, which drains the spleen, part of the pancreas, and the stomach & (b) superior mesentic vein, which drains the small intestine and transverse colon. The left gastric vein, which drains the lesser curve of the stomach, empties directly into the hepatic portal vein.
Portal vein receives blood from two major veins, Superior mesenteric vein that drains the entire small bowel and splenic vein which drains the entire large bowel and spleen. Portal vein supplies about 60% of the total blood flow to the liver.

between the left gastric and lienal The portal vein(vena portæ) is about 8 cm. in length, and is formed at the level of the second lumbar vertebra by the junction of the superior mesenteric and lienal veins, the union of these veins taking place in front of the inferior vena cava and behind the neck of the pancreas. It passes upward behind the superior part of the duodenum and then ascends in the right border of the lesser omentum to the right extremity of the porta hepatis, where it divides into a right and a left branch, which accompany the corresponding branches of the hepatic artery into the substance of the liver. In the lesser omentum it is placed behind and between the common bile duct and the hepatic artery, the former lying to the right of the latter. It is surrounded by the hepatic plexus of nerves, and is accompanied by numerous lymphatic vessels and some lymph glands.
arteries are the major blood vessels that can transport blood from lungs to heart
2 major blood vessels
Aorta Pulmonary artery Superior vena cava Inferior vena cava Pulmonary veins Coronary arteries Carotid arteries Renal arteries Hepatic portal vein Femoral artery
WhaT is the major distribution sequence of vessels of the arterial blood from heart to brain
To understand you need to know the anatomy of the portal vein system. The pancreatic veins drain into the major splenic vein which all drain into the hepatic portal vein. Although the artery supplying the pancreas is directly from the desceding aorta. The hepatic portal vein drains into the Liver. So insulin and glucagon are released into the splenic vein and eventually reach the liver via the portal system.
Arteries, veins and capillaries are the three major types of blood vessels.
