and endovascular procedures in the abdomen. The increasing use of invasive diagnostic and interventional procedures in
cardiovascular diseases makes it important that the type and frequency of vascular variations are well documented and
understood. With the advent of laproscopic renal surgeries and donor nephrectomies, it becomes mandatory for the surgeon
to understand the abnormality or variations in the renal vasculature. Otherwise renal transplant may be jeopardized by the
presence of accessory and aberrant renal vessels. Existence of the accessory and aberrant renal arteries is accountable in cases
of renal pathologies, radiological interventions, renal transplants, and other surgical approach on them. Persistence of certain
of the more cephalad mesonephros vessels, however, may result in the arterial abnormalities. Therefore this case report
would serve as ray of light for knowing the possible anatomical variations associated with the renal vasculature. During
routine dissection we observed an unusual variation in the vascular supply to the kidney on the right side of a 56 year old
male cadaver. However such variation was not found on the opposite side. Patients with such variations may be
