Fig. 2 —Diagram shows sites of venous invasion that may be
potentially resectable; v = vein, vv = veins. Most common anatomic
configuration of portal vein is shown. Early invasion of venous segment marked
in purple is potentially resectable, with subsequent vein reconstruction.
Invasion of superior mesenteric vein proximal (away from liver) to its jejunal
tributaries is not resectable due to difficulty with vascular control in this
area and potential for bowel infarction.
