Investigations on renal vascularisation pathology in the Polish population. 1. Incidence of multiple kidney arteries.

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to determine the incidence of multiple kidney arteries in the Polish population.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study group comprised 924 deceased patients aged between one month and 94 years (mean age : 63.4 ± 22.4 years) who were subject to aortonephrography and sample preparation. The ratio of male to female patients was 479:445.

RESULTS: Multiple kidney arteries were observed in 44.8% male and 31.5% female patients (p=0,004). Considering male patients right multiple kidney arteries were diagnosed in 24.4%, and left multiple kidney arteries in 31.3% of cases (p=0,017). In female patients right multiple kidney arteries were observed in 17.8% of cases, and left multiple kidney arteries in 19.6% of cases (p=0,49).

CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of multiple kidney arteries in the Polish population is a frequent phenomenon, and should be considered in case of urological surgery and kidney transplantation.
