AN ANATOMICAL STUDY ON RENAL ARTERIES AND IT‘S VARIATION
Vahini . R, Nisha. S. R. Manuel
Abstract :
In the present millennium, with tremendous recent advances in renal surgeries, it is prerequisite to have an extensive and sound knowledge, of the renal vascular anatomy and its variations, so that, the outcome of transplant surgeries, vascular reconstructions, urological and other radiological interventions have minimal or no postoperative morbidity or mortality on the patients. This study highlights about a possible anatomical variation in renal vasculature. Patients with variations of renal vasculature can be completely asymptomatic. The renal arteries are paired vessels arising from abdominal aorta. They anch and reanch as segmental arteries to supply blood to the segments of the kidney. Precise knowledge of renal artery and its anching pattern is useful for surgeons while performing nephrectomies and renal transplantations. Variations can occur in origin, number, course and anching of renal arteries. A supplemental renal artery is an additional artery within the renal vascular pedicle which perforates the kidney to supply it. The supplemental renal artery can be either an accessory renal artery or an aberrant renal artery. An accessory renal artery is a one that is accessory to main artery accompanies the same towards the hilum and enters through the hilum to supply it. An aberrant renal artery supplies the kidney without entering the hilum. This study was conducted at Department of Anatomy, Government Medical College, Chennai –2 between June 2016– October 2017.
