Abstract

The hila and the adjacent pre-hilar area of seventy-two (35 right and 37 left) kidneys isolated from formalin fixed cadavers were examined. Subsequently, the total number of tributaries emerging from renal hilum to form main renal vein were studied and the variations in them were observed. Thereafter, we calculate and compare our results with similar studies conducted in the past. This information is of importance for surgeons performing nephron sparing surgeries and performing renal transplant operations.
