Summary Introduction
To review:
The occurrence of splenomegaly by portal hypertension.
Introduction:
Portal hypertension is a condition where the portal venous system blood pressure is high. The blood vessels are categorized into arteries, veins, and capillaries. The arteries carry oxygen rich blood from the heart and transport it throughout the body whereas the veins receive deoxygenated blood from the body parts and transport it to the heart. Splenomegaly is a condition where the spleen becomes enlarged.

TRUE OR FALSE
Systemic vein has the highest distribution percentage in blood flow followed by the large veins then the systemic arteries.
Lymphatic vessels are often referred to as “resistance vessels” because of it being a factor for resisting lymph flow.
