The celial trunk gives rise to the left gastric, common hepatic, and splenic artery • The liver has a dual circulation system: hepatic artery (25% of oxygen rich blood) and hepatic vein (75% of nutrient rich blood) • The spleen receives blood from splenic artery. The spleen is highly vascular, has high concentration of blood channels that trap foreign cells and abnormal red blood cells Summary
