Does the hepatic portal vein carry oxygen-rich blood?
The liver gets a dual blood supply from the hepatic portal vein and hepatic artery. Supplying approximately 75% of the liver's blood supply, the hepatic portal vein carries venous blood drained from the spleen, gastrointestinal tract, and its associated organs. The hepatic arteries supply arterial blood to the liver, accounting for the remainder of its blood flow . Oxygen is provided from both sources; approximately half of the liver's oxygen demand is met by the hepatic portal vein, and half is met by the hepatic arteries.

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.

What is the main purpose of the hepatic-portal circulation?
Hepatic Portal Circulation The veins of the hepatic portal circulation drain the digestive organs, spleen, and pancreas and deliver the blood to the liver via hepatic portal vein. As blood percolates through the liver, some of the nutrients are stored or processed in various ways for release to the general circulation. The liver in turn is drained by the hepatic veins that enter the inferior vena cava. The inferior mesenteric vein, draining the distal part of the large intestine, joins the splenic vein, which drains the spleen, pancreas and stomach. The splenic vein and the superior meseteric vein, which drains the small intestine and the proximal colon, unite to form the hepatic portal vein. The left gastric vein, which drains the lesser curvature of the stomach, drains directly into the hepatic portal vein.
