Thirty pairs of kidneys of adult (15 males and 15 fameless) street dogs have been used.  The specimen were prepared with an injection of vinyl solution and corrosion, and the following conclusions have been reached: 1) The renal vinins are formed by the direct union of two venous trunks which are either cranial and caudal ( 73,3% at the right and76,7% at the left ) or ventral and dorsal (26,7% at the right and 23,3% at  the left)   2 )  The distribution of these venous trunks is 83,3% similar in the same animal, 66,7% cranial and caudal; 16,7% ventral and dorsal. 3) The incoming vessels which constitute the cranial and caudal venous trunks have links between them and may actually be considered as true transversal “anastomotic arcs” (one to three). 4) The is star like venous capsular network with a wide distribution to almst all the surface of the organ.
