The ischemia-reperfusion has been used in renal surgery such as conservative partial nephrectomy and kidney transplantation. To perform ischemia we can block the blood flow of renal artery or simultaneous blockade of the renal artery and vein. The ischemia leads to cellular damage to the kidney mainly by local oxidative stress and releasing free radicals as well as increased inflammatory response. Several authors related renal injury after ischemia-reperfusion, however; only functional tests were carried out to date. The authors attempted to evaluate the morphological lesion of the kidney using subjective scores. Our goal is assess by stereological quantification of the renal parenchyma after ischemia-reperfusion injury comparing arterial only clamping and arteriovenous clamping. We used 24 Wistar rats, males, four months old. The animals were divided into three groups: Sham group (n = 8), the group of clamping of the renal artery (n = 8) and the group of simultaneous clamping of renal artery and vein (n = 8). The animals underwent laparotomy. Sham group animals remained anesthetized for 60 minutes without blood flow obstruction of their renal vessels. The group animals underwent arterial clamping have had his left renal artery clamped for 60 minutes and the animals in the group of arterial and venous clamping had their left renal vessels clamped simultaneously for the same time. After 60 minutes the animals were sutured and kept for 30 days in their own boxes being killed by anesthetic overdose after that. The kidneys were collected and kept in formaldehyde solution and subsequently processed for histological and stereological analysis. We analyzed the volume density (Vv) of the glomeruli, the number of glomeruli/mm3 (Nv) and mean glomerular volume (MGV). The Vv and Nv was reduced in the ischemic left kidney but was only significant in animals of the group of arterial and venous clamping. Even using the rat as experimental animal model, from our results we recommend the use of arterial clamping only in cases where minimum injury to the kidney is imperative.
