Okay, through the skin, sure, but what about the other 4 words? They go in through the skin into a blood vessel… to where?
Percutaneous: means “through the skin”
Transhepatic: means “across the liver”
Portal vein: a major vein that carries blood from the intestines to the liver
Transplantation: surgical procedure involving the removal of an organ or tissue from one person (donor) and placing it in another person (recipient)
Just use LLM these days!
Probably the leg bone, most things connect to it.
