15 Posterior Body Wall, Diaphragm Flashcards
Kidney embryology
intermediate mesoderm
3 development stages of kidney
Pronephric - useless
Mesonephric - forms ureteric bud which gives rise to collecting system of kidney
metanephric - develop into adult kidney. 5th week
Kidney vs gonads
gonads descend during development
kidney ascent from lower lumbar/sacral region
location of kidney
T12 - L3
Right is lower
kidney is retroperitoneal?
lies retroperitoneally in mass of perirenal fat ensheated by renal fascia.
renal fascia attachement
superior - diaphragm
posterior - psoa muscle
medial - inferior venacava, aorta
inferior - ureter
reason kidney infection spread to pelvis
anterior branch of renal artery
apical
upper
middle
inferior
posterior branch of renal artery
supply middle
accessory renal artery
form from aorta as kidney ascends, can obstruct ureter
innervation of kidney
sympathetic, little or no parasympathetic
ureter is retroperitoneal tube
retroperitoneal
ureter is constricted where
- transition from pelvis to ureter
- pelvic inlet where it crosses the iliac vessels
- entry to the urinary bladder
KIDNEY STONE LODGE
suprarenal gland embryology
cortex - mesoderm
medullar - ectoderm
suprarenal gland cortex
produce sterord hormone (Cortisol)
suprarenal gland medulla
receive preganglionic sympahtetic fiber from sympathetic trunk via greater splanchnic nerve -> secret catecholamines
venous of suprarenal
right suprarenal vein goes to superior vena cava
left suprarenal vein goes to left renal vein
diaphragem embryology
- septum tarnsversum
- pleuroperitoneal membrane
- mesentery of esophagus
- muscular components
attachement of diaphragm
sternal - syphoid process
costal - internal surface of lower 6 ribs and costal cartilage
lumbar part - arise from lumbar vertebra by right and left crura which attach to upper 2 lumbar vertebrae and surround aorta
central tendon of diaphragm - fused to inferior surface of fibrous pericardium
sensory of peripheral diaphragm
intercostal nerves
median arcuate ligament
unite crura opposite the disc of T12 and L1
