[The vascular supply congenital high renal ectopia (author's transl)].
The angiographic findings in two cases of congenital high renal ectopia are described. Elongation and straightening of the renal arteries, pre-renal branching, transverse or inverted position and typical deformity of the kidneys make up the anatomical components of this anomaly. The previously held view of high origin of the renal vessels has not been confirmed. High origin of the renal arteries from the abdominal aorta does not distinguish congenital from acquired renal ectopia, as may occur after trauma.
