  2. Renal artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_artery

    The arterial supply of the kidneys is variable and there may be one or more renal arteries supplying each kidney. [1] It is located above the renal vein. Supernumerary renal arteries (two or more arteries to a single kidney) are the most common renovascular anomaly, occurrence ranging from 25% to 40% of kidneys. [8]

  3. Renal circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_circulation

    The venous drainage of the kidney large mirrors its arterial supply, except that there are no segmental veins. [4] The stellate veins arise from the capillaries, then drain successively through interlobular veins and interlobar veins until these converge from across the kidney to form the renal vein for that kidney.

  4. Inferior mesenteric artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_mesenteric_artery

    In human anatomy, the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) is the third main branch of the abdominal aorta and arises at the level of L3, supplying the large intestine from the distal transverse colon to the upper part of the anal canal. The regions supplied by the IMA are the descending colon, the sigmoid colon, and part of the rectum. [1]

  5. Left colic artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_colic_artery

    The left colic artery is a branch of the inferior mesenteric artery distributed to the descending colon, and left part of the transverse colon.It ends by dividing into an ascending branch and a descending branch; [1] the terminal branches of the two branches go on to form anastomoses with the middle colic artery, and a sigmoid artery (respectively).

  6. Renal vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_vein

    The renal veins in the renal circulation, are large-calibre [1] veins that drain blood filtered by the kidneys into the inferior vena cava. There is one renal vein draining each kidney. [citation needed] Each renal vein is formed by the convergence of the interlobar veins of one kidney. [2] Because the inferior vena cava is on the right half of ...

    The inferior mesenteric vein may be damaged during surgery on the body and tail of the pancreas. [2] If a serious laceration occurs, the inferior mesenteric vein may be ligated, as other veins can drain the large intestine. [2]

  9. Hepatic portal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatic_portal_system

    The superior mesenteric vein and the splenic vein come together to form the actual hepatic portal vein. The inferior mesenteric vein connects in the majority of people on the splenic vein, but in some people, it is known to connect on the portal vein or the superior mesenteric vein. Roughly, the portal venous system corresponds to areas ...
