Arterial Variations in a Single Cadaver: A Case Report | Chapter 11 | Medicine and Medical Research: New Perspectives Vol. 5

During the routine dissection of an approximately 55-year-old male cadaver, we observed the following variations in the branches of aorta, presence of an accessory renal artery on the right side, right testicular artery arising from the accessory renal artery and obturator artery from the posterior division of internal iliac artery. The right accessory renal artery to the lower pole originated from the lateral part of the abdominal aorta about 0.5 cm from the origin of the right renal artery. Routine dissection in Anatomy gives a lot of variations in cadavers and it provides a sound indication to surgeons. Such variations especially in blood vessels are important during operative, diagnostic and endovascular procedures. These observations have implications for abdominal and pelvic surgeons and are of academic interest to anatomists. Surgeons dealing with kidney transplantation and obturator hernia need to be aware of these observations.
