Abstract

Background. Renal vascular and ureteral anomalies detected by preoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA) are important for determining the side of the donor nephrec-tomy and the optimal surgical technique. In the present study, we aimed to examine the renal vas-cular and ureteral variations in living kidney donor candidates.
