Variations of renal arteries are considered critical issues that surgeons should have through envision and appreciation of the condition. Variations of these vessels may influences urological. renal transplantation and laparoscopic surgeries. We present a case of left side unilateral accessory renal artery with a striking pre- hilar branching pattern noticed by routine dissection. The left kidney received two renal arteries from the aorta as a 02 separate trunks to hilar region. However the right side renal artery originated from the aorta as a single trunk and then followed by two divisions supplying the right kidney. Hear we discuss embryological origin and clinical aspects of accessory renal artery.

Abstract


Variations of renal arteries are considered critical issues that surgeons should have through envision and appreciation of the condition. Variations of these vessels may influences urological. renal transplantation and laparoscopic surgeries. We present a case of left side unilateral accessory renal artery with a striking pre- hilar branching pattern noticed by routine dissection. The left kidney received two renal arteries from the aorta as a 02 separate trunks to hilar region. However the right side renal artery originated from the aorta as a single trunk and then followed by two divisions supplying the right kidney. Hear we discuss embryological origin and clinical aspects of accessory renal artery.
