Abstract
In this article, we discuss double renal arteries and double renal veins located on the left side of a 70-year-old male cadaver. It was observed
that one of the renal arteries was passing between the two roots of the renal vein. It was thought that the renal artery could be compressed
by the renal vein, and this could prevent blood supply to a part of the kidney. Abnormal number of renal vessels in our case are discussed in
the light of embryological data and literature findings.
