Abstract
Introduction The variations of the renal veins are not as common as arteries. Reports on presence of renal arterial abnormalities predominates the venous abnormalities. Hence venous variations go unnoticed. Thus here we report a case of right accessory renal vein.Case report We report here a case of accessory right renal vein arising from the hilum of the right kidney, inferior to the main renal vein and draining into the inferior venacava at its posterior aspect at about 1.5cm below the level of termination of the main renal vein. Conclusion Detailed knowledge of the anatomy and anomalies of renal veins is necessary for retroperitoneal surgery and venographic procedures in addition to providing safety guidelines for endovascular procedures.
