Talk:Portal vein/Archive 1

Making to disambig
Portal vein most frequently refers to the hepatic one. The contents I removed better fit into the article portal vein (vein type) or portal vein (type) or portal vein (type, unnamed)-- or just in the portal venous system article (as one rarely talks of an unnamed portal vein in isolation). The article as it was written was about the type of vein (i.e. portal versus non-portal, systemic vs. pulmonary, deep vs. superficial)-- which is contrary to the popular usage.
