Figure 1. a–c.

Schematic drawing shows the types of aberrant left gastric vein (ALGV). Type 1 vein (a) acts as a pure accessory portal vein (PV) which branches out and flows through the sinusoids. Type 2 vein (b) has a parenchymatous distribution with anastomosis to PV. Type 3 vein (c) has a more cranial course with anastomosis to intrahepatic PV branches.
