In the current study, ten specimens of the adult ox kidneys have been used to identitymorphology and blood supply features by using corrosion cast technique. The mean bodyweight of ox was 180±10kg. The external surface of the kidneys was elongated oval to pyramid,lobulated flattened ventrodorsally, and light-brown in color. The right kidney is weighted 299±24gm as well as it had two surfaces (ventral and dorsal), two borders (lateral and medial) andtwo poles (cranial and caudal), while the left kidney is weighted 333± 27gm and had threesurfaces (right &left ventral and dorsal), in addition it had two borders and two poles.The renal artery and vein have the same course and each one divided into 2-3 segmental bloodvessels. The segmental artery and vein are divided in to interlobular artery and vein whichsupply medulla and cortex. The interlobular artery & vein were passed through the renalcolumns and branched into arcuate and finally gave off cortical artery and vein.The aim of this study, to exposure the normal gross internal appearance of blood vessels andureter of ox kidneys by using corrosion cast technique.
