Knowledge of the renal vessels variations has importance in a systematization program of radiological and surgical anatomy, both in humans and animals, applied for research and surgical training. Renal arteries have been considered by dissective or angiographic study means. Particular attention has been paid to the study of these vessels, outlining the variations noticed among various animal species. The renal arteries sites of origin of the abdominal aorta vary according to the renal topography of the different animals. As a rule, the right artery arises more cranially than the left one, according with the most cranial position of the right kidney. Thus, the goal of this article is to describe a case of a left double renal artery originating from the ventral portion of the aorta, in a three old male cat cadaver, formalin-preserved at 10% and with latex colored vascular injection. It was observed that the left kidney was supplied by two arteries of different topography and arrangements, showing duplicity of the renal artery.
