An unusual transhepatic collateral was found in a patient with portal hypertension. This pathway originated from an anomalous portal branch that arose from the left portal vein branch, and was considered a venous analogy to an accompanying accessory left gastric artery. A relation between the development of the intrahepatic pathway and variation in the hepatic artery is suggested.
