Abstract

Testicular arterial anatomy is important for testicular and renal surgeries. It may vary at the origin and arise from renal artery, suprarenal artery or lumbar artery. During routine dissection of 52-year-old male cadaver; the right testicular artery arising from right aberrant renal artery was found. Anatomical variation of testicular arteries is reported to be 4.7%. Presence of aberrant renal artery is seen in 13–16% of cases only. The origin of right testicular artery from right aberrant renal artery is very rare. Thus knowledge of this type of variation is very important in avoiding complications during operative surgeries.
