Hepatic microvascular dysplasia

Hepatic microvascular dysplasia (HMD or MVD) or Portal Atresia is a disorder where mixing of venous blood and arterial blood in the liver occurs at the microscopic level. It occurs most commonly in certain dog breeds such as the Cairn and Yorkshire terriers although any dog breed may be at risk.
