H shape renal vein anomaly encountered during living donor nephrectomy

Abstract Presence of renal vein anomalies can create technical difficulties especially during donor nephrectomy. Three common anomaly are described. These are supernumerary renal vein, retroaortic renal vein and circumaortic renal vein, but there is no literature depicting H-Shaped anomaly of renal vein. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first case report of H-Shaped renal vein anomaly found during open donor nephrectomy.
