Abstract

 A thorough knowledge of the variations of the renal artery has grown importance with the increasing numbers of renal transplants, vascular reconstructions and various surgical and radiological techniques. The present study was conducted on 30 well embalmed human cadavers during routine dissection to note the normal anatomy and variations of renal artery. Accessory renal arteries in the present study were found in 10 cases (33.3%) and were more frequent on left side i.e. in 7 cases (70%) than on the right side 3 cases (30%). To plan the adequate surgical procedure and to avoid any vascular complication, Multi Detector Computer Tomography (MDCT), angiography and arteriography should be performed prior to surgery (nephrectomy). As the number of renal surgical and radiological interventions increase, a better understanding of the anatomy of renal arteries and their branches gain importance. 

Keywords: Renal Artery; Nephrectomy; Angiography; Arteriography.
