The origin of the arteries in the abdominal aorta presents a number of anatomical variations so frequently. The variations of coeliac trunk, renal arteries and gonadal arteries are very common. The knowledge of anatomical variations of abdominal aortic branches and renal arteries is essential for surgeons in kidney transplantation surgeries, ureteric surgeries, abdominal aortic aneurismal surgeries to prevent vascular complications during surgery , and post surgical complications . In routine dissection sessions of 1st year medical students we observed a variation in the origin of renal arteries on the left side kidney in a 55years aged male cadaver and we are reporting an accessory left renal artery at the lower pole of kidney along with the main left renal artery.
