STUDY OF RENAL AND ACCESSORY RENAL ARTERIES-ANATOMICAL STUDY

Dr. K. Egeswari, Dr. H. Raja Kohila

Abstract :

In recent years, more conservative methods of surgery of the renal artery are coming up. Hence, a precise knowledge of renal vasculature has become a necessity. Knowledge of the existence of accessory renal arteries is important; otherwise, they may get inadvertently damaged during renal surgery. Furthermore, their presence must be considered while evaluating a donor’s kidney for possible renal transplantation. The study may also be useful to clinicians performing invasive techniques, vascular surgeries, other uro–radiological procedures, and in cases of trauma. Keeping this in mind, this study was conducted on 100 adult cadavers. A total of 200 kidneys obtained from these cadavers were dissected and accessory renal arteries were looked for; 26 % of the specimens showed the presence of accessory renal arteries. In 20% one accessory renal artery was found, and in 3.5 % of specimens, two accessory renal arteries were seen.
