Abstract

The aim of the study was to conduct a three-dimensional analysis of some variants of a renal artery’ division and its major vessels. We performed 124 corrosive preparations of a human kidney arterial system, followed by 3D scanning to obtain digital models. In a three-dimensional projection, the variants, and types of vascular branching of the arterial system of the human kidney were determined with the number of branches of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd orders. The morphometric analysis data were processed by the methods of variation statistics. It was found that 54.2 % of renal artery in the hilum is divided into 2 branches: ventral and dorsal. In 15.5 % of cases, the renal artery is divided in the horizontal plane into the upper pole and lower pole branches. In 12.9 % of cases, it is divided into ventral, dorsal and upper pole branches; in 9.4 % of cases, there is a division of the renal artery and into the ventral, dorsal and lower pole branches; in 5.1 % of cases, it divides into two ventral and one dorsal branches in the frontal plane; in 2.5 % of cases, the renal artery is divided into the upper pole, central and lower pole branches.
