Other portal systems
I'm pretty sure that portal systems exist in the adrenal glands, kidneys, and pancreas. However, I'm not sure if they all qualify as true portal systems. Also, I don't know about the adrenals and pancreas, but the kidney is an arterial rather than venous portal system. Input from someone who knows more than I do would be appreciated. Thanks.

There are three portal systems of which I know (surgical resident). The kidney is one. Also there is one through the hypothalamus (first capillary system) then to the adenohypophysis. The last is the portal vein. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.86.240.234 (talk) 04:07, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Bioinorganic Article Review
Although this article has links to other articles, it doesn't contain any sources so there is no way to check the reliability of the information. The tone is factual and unbiased, but some information seems to be incorrect or missing. I think examples of these systems in other mammals would be a good start.Ebridg01 (talk) 01:59, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
