Prehilar renal artery division with supernumerary renal veins: a case series
Journal Title: International Journal of Anatomical Variations - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To know the variations of renal vessels in human cadavers. METHODS: The study was performed on 3 cadaveric cases. The posterior abdominal wall was dissected to study the paired kidneys. RESULTS: The following observations were made: bilateral prehilar division of renal artery in all 3 cadavers, triple renal vein on right side in one kidney. CONCLUSION: Anatomical knowledge of the vascular variations is essential for the clinician to perform procedures such as renal transplantation, renal vascular operations more safely and efficiently.
