Two unique presentations of renal anatomy were observed during routine cadaveric dissection. The first case presented with an ectopic malrotated left kidney supplied by supernumerary renal arteries. This kidney was drained by a circumaortic renal vein and an inferior polar vein.

The left brachiocephalic vein (LBCV) usually passes superior and anterior to the aortic arch. In rare cases, this vein follows an anomalous course. We present a case of duplicated circumaortic LBCV in a 10-year-old child with Tetralogy of Fallot.

Variations of the left renal vein can be in the form of circumaortic vein or renal collar, retro-aortic vein, additional renal vein, or multiple primary tributaries. We report a unique complex venous pattern of concomitant circumaortic and retro-aortic left renal veins associated with a fenestrated left renal artery. Two renal veins, anterior and posterior to the renal artery, originated from the renal hilum.

The potential for significant bleeding and subsequent renal compromise upon vascular injury highlights the need for increased surgical awareness.
Objective: This study investigates the LRV's variable anatomical drainage patterns and morphometry.
