Abstract

Abstract: The aim of the study was to determine the distribution patterns of multiple renal arteries, evaluate how they are affected by gender andbilateral asymmetry and proceed on a systematic review. One hundred and six kidneys from 53 cadavers (27 males and 26 females)were investigated. The number and pattern of multiple renal arteries were determined according to side, gender and level of origin. Thedistances between the main renal and first multiple renal arteries were also measured. Multiple renal arteries were present in 5.6% of thekidneys. No statistically significant difference was found between side and gender (p>0.05). The incidence of multiple renal arteries was43% unilaterally and 6% bilaterally. As regards the multiple renal arteries, a single artery was detected in 43%, two in 6% and three in2.3idin%. In 15.5% (3/12) of the kidneys, there was a short common trunk (<1.5 cm), early dividing into the main renal artery and a thinnerartery. Multiple renal arteries on the left side seemed to emerge lower than the right ones and displayed a greater variability at their origin.In the systematic review, we detected the patterns of multiple renal arteries which were classified according to population, gender, side andspecimen (cadaveric, radiological or transplant). The awareness of morphology and topography of the multiple renal arteries is important inorder to achieve a safe pre and intraoperative management of the renal vascular supply.
