[Arterial vessels of the kidney in domestic swine]

By histological preparation, measuring, corrosion and angiography were studied the arterial blood vessels of 120 kidneys from 60 individuals at different ages. It was established that the kidney artery in the most cases (70%) divides by the dichotomous type in cranial and caudal or in dorsal and ventral branches, and rarely (30%) by the disseminated type in 3 branches--two cranial and one caudal. Investigated were the position, course and branching of the prelobar, interlobar, the arcuate, the inter- and intra-lobular arteries.
