The '''hepatic artery proper''' (also '''proper hepatic artery'''), arises from the [[common hepatic artery]] and runs alongside the [[portal vein]] and the [[common bile duct]] to form the [[portal triad]]. It subsequently gives off the [[cystic artery]] which feeds the [[gallbladder]] before bifurcating into the right and left hepatic arteries.
