Macroscopic distribution of the renal artery and intrarenal arteries in mole rats (Spalax leucodon)

Abstract: ABSTRACT:A study was conducted of the kidneys of adult mole rats (Spalax leucodon) to describe the macro-and mesoscopic morphology of the renal arterial distribution and some additional anatomical features. The kidneys of the mole rat lay alongside the vertebral column in the abdominal region, the right kidney situated more cranial than the left. Covered by a thin connective tissue capsule, the kidney was bean-shaped, smooth, and reddish-brown. The mean live weight of the studied mole rats was 203.6 ± 15.05 g.… Show more

“…In this study showed that the renal arteries observed that their origins to be from the ventral surface of the abdominal aorta, in relation with the literature (18). While, some literature (14,(19)(20)(21) described that the renal arteries observed that originated from each side of the abdominal aorta.…”

“…In contrast with the chinchilla, the literature reports different aspects in rats (Moffat and Fourman, 1963;Yoldas et al, 2014) and Wistar mouse species (Nur and Yaldş, 2011), where the right renal artery arises from abdominal aorta, cranially to the origin of cranial mesenteric artery.…”
