Right Gastric Vein
The Right Gastric Vein is a blood vessel that drains blood from the stomach, specifically from the right side of the organ. It typically runs along the lesser curvature of the stomach and connects to the Hepatic Portal Vein, which carries blood to the liver for processing.
This vein plays a crucial role in the venous drainage of the stomach, helping to regulate blood flow and nutrient absorption. It is part of the larger network of veins that includes the Left Gastric Vein and the Gastric Veins, all of which contribute to the overall circulatory system of the digestive organs.
