Özet

The study was conducted to investigate the variations of renal arteries in Hasmer sheep. Six animals were used in the study. Renal artery and its segments were prepared using standard corrosion cast techniques and examined. An electronic calibrator was used to measure the length and diameter of the renal arteries. Renal arteries were originating from the abdominal artery, right and left. The left renal artery was longer than the right. Renal arteries were also divided into dorsal and ventral branches. Dorsal and ventral branches respectively; interlobar, arcuate and interlobuler arteries were separated. An interlobar artery originating from the ventral branch of both kidneys fed both the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the kidney. None of the materials had anastomosis.
