Urine passage

24
Q

Outline flow urine?

A

Renal tubules nephron
Collecting ducts
Papillary ducts (toward apex)
Minor calyces
Major calyces
Renal pelvis
Ureter
Urinary bladder
Urethra

25
Explain how urine is formed?
Blood reach bowmans capsule and glomerulus- blood plasma filtered out Glomerular filtrate down PCT- water, glucose aa reabsorbed Loop of henle- Na+ and K+ reabsorbed DCT Collecting duct- water reabsorbed- urine concentrated Papillary ducts Open at apex renal pyramid- minor calyce Major calyce Open into renal pelvis Ureter- travel out kidney through hilum Urinary bladder Urethra Urethra opening
26
Where does concentration urine occur?
Collecting duct
27
What is loin to groin pain symptom of?
Kidney stones T12-L2
28
Why are UTI's more common girls?
Urethra shorter Bacteria get in
29
What place is kindey stone most likely present?
Ureter narrows 1. Pelvi-ureteric junction (PUJ) – between the renal pelvis and ureter. 2. Pelvic brim - where the ureter runs over the pelvic brim, anterior to the iliac artery. 3. Vesico-ureteric junction (VUJ) - where the ureter joins the bladder

Where are renal pyramids in kidney? Contain?
Renal medulla Nephron
35
36
State kidney structure? Deep to superficial
Renal capsule – tough fibrous capsule. Perirenal fat – collection of extraperitoneal fat. Renal fascia- encloses the kidneys and the suprarenal glands. Pararenal fat – mainly located on the posterolateral aspect of the kidney.
37
What can internal structure of kidney be divided into?
Outer cortex Inner medulla
38
What is apex of pyramid called?
Renal papilla
39
What is renal papilla associated with?
Minor calyx- collect urine from pyramids
40
Where does urine go after mojor calices?
Renal pelvis
41
Where do renal vessels/ureter enter?
Renal hilum
42
Where is: Glomerulus Proximal tubule Loop of henle Distal tubule Collecting duct located?
Cortex Glomerulus Proximal tubule Distal tubule Medulla Loop of Henle Collecting duct
43
What is arterial supply to kidney?
Renal artery Abdominal aorta
44
What are divisions renal artery?
Renal artery enter renal hilum Anterior and posterior Segmental Divide and supply renal parenchyma
45
What form lumbar plexus?
L1-L4 cont T12
46
Function of lumber plexus?
Innervate skin and muscles abdominal wall and thigh
47
What nerves supply: External genitalia Lateral thigh Anterior thigh Medial thigh
External genitalia- ilioingual, genitofemoraL Lateral thigh- lateral femoral cutaneous nerve Anterior thigh- femoral nerve Medial thigh- obturator nerve
48
At what point does thoracic aorta pierce diaphragm? What does it descend as?
T12 Abdominal aorta
49
