Abstract

Renal arteries are paired branches of abdominal aorta; these arteries are important due to increase in interventional radiological procedures, urological and vascular operations, and renal transplantation. Kidney specimens and arteries were explored, dried with hair drier, 1:10 thin solution of quick fix and acetone applied over arteries and painted with PO red colour. Variations in morphological patterns and segmental patterns of renal arteries were noted. In present study out of 50 specimens in 7 (14%) observed superior polar artery which is the branch of abdominal aorta. A branch originating from the renal artery (superior renal polar branch) was observed on the right hand side in 10 (20%) and in 17 (34%) on the left side. The results are statistically significant. 20 kidney specimens we were found duplicated renal arteries. This multiple renal artery variations are of great clinical significance to radiologists, nephrologists and urologists in imaging, procedures and urological surgeries respectively.
