Renal AMLs are also found in approximately 15% of patients with lymphangiomyomatosis. Lymphangiomyomatosis, which is considered by many to be aforme frusteof tuberous sclerosis, is an idiopathic disease that occurs in young women. It consists of smooth muscle hamartomas along the lymphatic syst...
A total of 30 adult abdominal aorta specimens dissected from cadavers was used in our study. The location of the ostium of the superior mesenteric a. relative to the ostium of the celiac trunk was identified on the aortic wall. Following this, the locations of the ostia of the renal aa. ...

Understanding the vascular anatomy of the kidneys, ureters, adrenals, and bladder is essential for image-guided therapy. For example, a patient with a traumatic fistula between the renal artery and vein may benefit from transcatheter embolotherapy. Such a procedure would spare the renal parenchyma ...
