The plexus receives pre-ganglionic parasymathetic afferents primarily [1] from the anterior vagal trunk, [1] [2] with a lesser contribution from [1] the posterior vagal trunk. [1] [2] The anterior vagal trunk issues one or more hepatic branches of anterior vagal trunk that pass in the superior portion of the lesser omentum to reach the hepatic plexus.
A liver sinusoid is a type of capillary known as a sinusoidal capillary, discontinuous capillary or sinusoid, that is similar to a fenestrated capillary, having discontinuous endothelium that serves as a location for mixing of the oxygen-rich blood from the hepatic artery and the nutrient-rich blood from the portal vein.
The hepatic branches of anterior vagal trunk are branches of the anterior vagal trunk that provide parasympathetic innervation the liver, [1] [2]: 499 and gallbladder. [2]: 266 Each anterior vagal trunk (it may be doubled or tripled) issues 1-2 hepatic branches which pass through the superior part of the omentum minus to reach and join the hepatic (nervous) plexus [2]: 250–252 before ...
The hepatic vein subsequently drains into the inferior vena cava. The hepatic artery provides 30 to 40% of the oxygen to the liver, while only accounting for 25% of the total liver blood flow. The rest comes from the partially deoxygenated blood from the portal vein. The liver consumes about 20% of the total body oxygen when at rest.
Hepatic branches which supply the liver, [3] [1] gallbladder, and biliary apparatus. [1] Celiac branches which contributes parasympathetic afferents to the celiac plexus. [1] Anterior gastric branches which supply the stomach. [3] [1] Anterior and posterior nerves of Latarjet which innervate the pylorus, and proximal duodenum. [1]
In histology (microscopic anatomy), the lobules of liver, or hepatic lobules, are small divisions of the liver defined at the microscopic scale. The hepatic lobule is a building block of the liver tissue , consisting of portal triads, hepatocytes arranged in linear cords between a capillary network, and a central vein .

The celiac lymph nodes are grouped into three sets: the gastric, hepatic and splenic lymph nodes. [citation needed] They receive lymph from the stomach, duodenum, pancreas, spleen, liver, and gall bladder. [1]
