In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will explore the intricate circulation of the liver and the pathophysiology of portal hypertension. We begin by reviewing the liver’s dual blood supply, emphasizing the roles of the hepatic artery and portal vein, and tracing the flow of blood through the sinusoids toward the central vein. This is followed by an in-depth look at the hepatic venous drainage system and its connection to the inferior vena cava. We then examine the concept of portal hypertension, detailing how increased resistance to portal blood flow—whether prehepatic, intrahepatic, or posthepatic—leads to elevated portal venous pressure. The discussion highlights common causes such as cirrhosis, portal vein thrombosis, and Budd-Chiari syndrome, and explains how these pathologies disrupt normal hemodynamics.
