this study reveals that three different modes of arterial terminals are available in the human spleen : arterial openings in the marginal zone which seem significant for presentation of antigens to the white pulp , openings into the cords of billroth which facilitate culling and pitting of blood cells , and direct connections with sinuses ( closed circulation ) which account for the physiologically known quick blood flow through the spleen .
