Variant origin of superior polar artery and unusual hilar branching pattern of renal artery with clinical correlation.

Abstract excerpt

Classically, a single renal artery arising from the abdominal aorta supplies the respective kidney on each side. Near the hilum of the kidney each renal artery divides into anterior and posterior branchs, which in turn divide into segmental arteries supplying the different renal segments.
