Summary:Considering the shortage of information in the literature, it is looked for to draw a profile of formation of the portal vein in twenty rabbits, to recognize the distribution pattern, looking for evidences of possible correlation between the formation patterns and the distribution of the portal vein. The animals were injected by Neoprene latex, fixed in formalin 10% and dissected. The hepatic-portal vein, in it extraparenquimal trajectory, was constituted, for the junction of the cranial and caudal mesenteric veins and receives veins from the stomach, spleen and pancreas. The cranial mesenteric vein receives, in all cases, a jejunal and an ileocecocolic trunk. The jejunal trunk was formed by the junction from eight to eighteen jejunal veins. The ileocecocolic trunk was formed by the encounter of the colic, cecals and ileal veins, in different arranjements and numbers. The caudal mesenteric vein was formed by junction of the rectal and left colic veins. Considerando a escassez de informações na literatura, buscou-se traçar um perfil de formação da veia porta-hepática em 20 coelhos, reconhecendo o padrão de sua formação extraparenquimal e as possíveis relações entre os padrões de formação e distribuição da veia porta nesta espécie. Os animais foram injetados com látex Neoprene, fixados em formalina 10% e dissecados. A veia porta, na sua trajetória extraparenquimal, constituiu-se da junção da veia mesentérica cranial e caudal, recebendo ainda tributárias do estômago, baço e pâncreas. A veia mesentérica cranial formou-se, na totalidade dos casos a partir da confluência de um tronco jejunal e um tronco ileocecocólico. O tronco jejunal foi formado pela união de oito a dezoito veias jejunais e o tronco ileocecocólico constituiu-se a partir do encontro das veias cólicas, cecais e ileais, em diferentes arranjos e números. A veia mesentérica caudal foi formada pela união das veias retal e cólica esquerda.
