Let $R$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring. In this paper, we prove that there is a bijection between the set of all valuations of $Quot(R)$ centered at $R$ and valuations of $k(x,y)$ centered at $k[x,y]_{ (x,y)}$, where $k$ is the residue field of $R$ and $x$ and $y$ are independent variables. Moreover, we give a new proof, for the fact that the set of all normalized real valuations centered at $R$ admits a structure of non metric tree.
