Noi aspecte privind anatomia şi morfologia vascularizaţiei renale

Abstract

The importance of the kidney within the organism is given by the fact that it is the most richly vascularised organ; the renal arteries are the biggest branches of the aorta as compared to the volume of the organ it irrigates. Researchers come up against problems related to the constitution of the kidney every time they try to interpret the variations of the renal structures and especially of its vessels, the latter representing the most important structure and the most studied ever since the earliest times. The present paper aims to present the macroscopic anatomic aspect of the terminal branches of the renal artery.
