Introduction: We did this study because there were a few studies about aorto-branch junction. Methods: Four light microscope and electron microscope study, the abdominal aorta, renal artery, and the adjoining right and left renal arteries were dissected out from 4 neonate dogs. Results: Based on the results, there is only one cell type in the tunica intima of endothelium in both art...

there are often duplicated ureter with types of congenital anomalies and associated clinical complications. the unilateral duplicated ureter was observed as an incidence result in usual dissection. during routine dissection of the body of an adult male with middle-aged 40-50 year old, the duality of unilateral incompletely ureter was seen in above. two branches of ureter are coalesce in 7 cm di...

Between 1962 and 1967 we noted a complication after unilateral renal artery reconstruction which to our knowledge has not yet been recorded. This was an acute reversible failure of the contralateral kidney, which occurred within a few days of operation and persisted for a few weeks before normal function returned. This complication arose in two out of 32 patients who underwent operation for ren...

Introduction Hypertension affects up to 65 million adults in the United States. A small subset of these patients have renovascular hypertension due to obstruction of the renal arteries. Fortunately, this type of hypertension can be corrected with treatment of the offending renal artery stenosis. Many hypertensive patients are referred for duplex ultrasound to screen for the presence of renal ar...

An unusual case of a 41-year-old woman with renovascular hypertension associated with unilateral hydronephrosis and ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) due to an accessory renal artery crossing the ureter were reported. Following surgical correction of the UPJO by dismembered pyeloplasty, the patient’s hydronephrosis resolved, and her requirement for antihypertensive therapy substantially...

BACKGROUND Renal artery stenting is widely performed, but little is known about its effectiveness in preserving renal function and size in patients with renovascular disease and chronic renal insufficiency. We studied the effect of renal artery stenting on renal function and size in patients with obstructive renovascular disease and chronic renal insufficiency. METHODS AND RESULTS Stent deplo...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Conservative renal surgery is based on the nephron-sparing principle. Renal arterial vascularization is of terminal type and the occlusion of an artery generates the necrosis of the corresponding region. The aim of this research is to analyze the anatomic particularities of the renal vascular system as they are highlighted in the course of standard and robotic surger...
