Popis: Context: The kidney is a highly vascular organ in the human body. The aim of the present study was to see the variations in perihilar branching pattern and morphology of the main renal arteries in a Bangladeshi population based on autopsy.Methods: This cross-sectional, descriptive study was done in the Department of Anatomy, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, from July 2008 to June 2009, based on collection of 140 post mortem human kidneys from 70 unclaimed dead bodies which were in the morgue. All the samples were divided into three age-groups: A (10-19 years), B (20-39 years) and C (40-59 years). Morphological examination was done to identify main renal arteries and accessory renal arteries with their sites of origin and perihilar branching pattern of the renal arteries as well. The length of the renal artery was measured by using a measuring tape. Besides, renal angiography was done to see the intrarenal branching pattern.Results: The length of the right and left renal arteries were found 3.09±0.08 cm and 2.09±0.09 cm; 3.48±0.17 cm and 2.34±0.17 cm; 3.88±0.17 cm and 2.81±0.16 cm in group A, B and C respectively. The length of the right renal artery was found greater than of the left (P
