Block 2 Posterior Body Wall Flashcards
three kidneys during embryo development
pronephrose (degenerates early), mesonephrose (functions during development), metanephrose (adult kidney)
the mesonephric duct forms these
ureteric bud, vas deferens/epididymis (male)
metanephros forms the blank while the collecting system is formed by blank
nephrons, ureteric bud
failure of a kidney to ascend, may be diagnosed as a tumor of the pelvis which may interfere with pregnancy
pelvic kidney
kidneys become too close to each other at ascent, lower poles fuse anterior to abdominal aorta
horseshoe kidney
location of kidney in adult
T12-L3
right kidney is slightly blank than left
lower
kidney is covered by the blank
renal capsule
kidney has an outer blank and an inner blank
cortex, medulla
medulla is divided into blank
renal pyramids, renal columns
tip of pyramid
renal papilla
renal papilla lets urine get into blank
minor calyces
minor calyces unite to form blank which go into part of the ureter called blank
major calyces, renal pelvis
left kidney lies in the blank
stomach bed
anterior branch of blood supply of kidney divides into these branches
apical, upper, middle, lower
blank arteries form from the aorta can obstruct the ureter
accessory renal
veins of kidney
right/left renal veins dump into inferior vena cava
little veins that go into renal veins
gonadal, suprarenal
arterial supply of ureter
renal, gonadal, abdominal aorta
