Two vessels carry blood into the liver. Hepatic artery has higher oxygen than portal vein. The aortic hiatus is located at the level of the tenth thoracic vertebra. The kidneys, the pancreas, and stomach are retroperitoneal. The renal arteries are paired and arise from the aorta at the level of the third lumbar vertebra.
