Abstract

A rare case of multiple renal vessels associated with testicular vessels was found from 85-year-old male cadaver undergoing routine dissection. The characteristic findings in the cadaver included the presence of five right renal arteries and three left renal arteries arising from the abdominal aorta, and the right testicular artery originated from the right middle hilar artery and the left testicular artery originated from the left inferior hilar artery. This variation may represent an immature form of complicated development of the kidneys and testes.
