Abstract

In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of patients with renal pathology. A high percentage of disability, along with a high cost of treatment, make this problem significant. In the course of this study, an analysis was made of full-text and abstract versions of articles that covered aspects of variant anatomy of the arteries of the kidney. The search for these articles was carried out on the electronic database PUBMED for the following key words: “kidney”, “renal artery”, “multiple arteries of kidney”. The variety of anatomical variants of the renal arteries is important for the clinician in performing such procedures as kidney transplantation, interventional radiological studies, and also allows for more safe and efficient operations on the kidney vessels. Medical diagnostics today has modern technological methods that allow visualizing the arteries of the kidney with high accuracy. The article compares the characteristics of instrumental methods, allowing to evaluate the possibility of visualization of additional kidney vessels. The questions of the prevalence of multiple arteries of the kidney are discussed, on the basis of which it was established that renal arteries variability can reach 75%, an evaluation of the terminology of the renal arteries, and the specific features of the formation of renal arteries. The growing needs of modern transplantology and medical science in general put before scientists many new questions, including: an increase in the number of kidney transplantations in conditions of deficiency of donor organs; expansion of the criteria for organ donation of the kidney. The presence of these problems, indicates the need for further research in this area.
