The liver is the end of the hepatic portal system, which involves a series of veins that stretch from various organs of the gastrointestinal tract. Most of this material is either absorbed water, chyle, or other digested materials, including sugar. The hepatic portal vein is the final vein before these materials from the GI tract enter the liver.
Hepatic portal vein or artery take your choice. If its the vernous system then its the vein.
