Abstract
Usually renal arteries arise from lateral or anterolateral aspect with single supply to each kidney. Renal vasculature may vary during embryological development. These variations have been termed accessory, unilateral or bilateral dual renal arteries. These renal variations provide additional information for interventional radiologists, vascular and transplant surgeons and urologist to understand better anatomy and outcomes in day to day practice.
Keywords: dual renal artery, aberrant renal artery, bilateral accessory renal arteries.
