Split liver preparation employed to test influence of splanchnic venous flow on liver morphology. Half of the liver receives splanchnic flow but the other half receives inflow from the inferior vena cava, making it analogous to a portacaval transposition. A, right half of the liver perfused with systemic venous blood. B, left half supplied by systemic venous blood. (From Marchioro et al [59].)
