Similarity in the vascular pattern of bile duct: In the wall of the bile duct, the arrangement of arterial and venous plexuses are similar. Extrinsic plexus represented by the epicholedochal plexus on the surface of the CBD is formed by branches from the paracholedochal marginal arteries or veins. Intrinsic plexuses are intramural and subepithelial plexuses connected by perforator vessels to the epicholedochal plexus.
