Trace the route of blood from the gastrointestinal tract to the inferior vena cava
Cirrhosis of the liver, a disease commonly associated with alcoholism, obstructs blood flow through hepatic blood vessels. As a result, blood backs up and capillary pressure greatly increases in organs drained by the hepatic portal system. What effects might this increasing capillary pressure produce, and which organs would it affect?
Veins of the Trunk
Area drained
Brachiocephalic vein
Common iliac vein
Hepatic portal vein
Hepatic vein
Inferior mesenteric vein
Internal iliac vein
Renal vein
Splenic vein
Superior mesenteric vein
