Morphometric Analysis of Distance of Origin of Renal Artery from Bifurcation of Abdominal Aorta for Interventional Procedures

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4

Abstract

Background: Renal artery arises from abdominal aorta supply the kidney, sometimes assisted by accessory renal arteries which also can arise from abdominal aorta. So various orifices present within the abdominal aorta may creat problem to identify the renal artery for the surgeons and radiologist during interventional procedures. Considering this clinical problem the present study has been undertaken to measure the distance of origin of renal artery from aortic bifurcation. Materials and methods: 16 embalmed formalin fixed cadavers (12 males, 4 females) were dissected in the abdomen to expose the renal artery, kidney and abdominal aorta by using routine dissection methods. Then the distance between the origin of renal artery and the aortic bifurcation were measured. Results: In males the renal artery arises from the aortic bifurcation at an average distance of 9.98 cm and 9.91 cm on the right and left sides respectively. In females the average distance is 8.35 cm and 8.43 cm respectively on right and left sides. Conclusion: The knowledge of average distance of origin of renal artery from aortic bifurcation will help the surgeons and radiologist during the interventional procedures in renal artery through abdominal aorta.
