19
Q

A

Gibson incision

20
Q

(anatomy) a depression or fissure where vessels or nerves or ducts enter a bodily organ, indented opening in the kidney where vessels enter and leave

A

hilum

21
Q

x-rays of the urinary tract taken after an iodine contrast medium is injected into the bloodstream; the contrast passes through the kidney and may reveal an obstruction, evidence of trauma, etc.

A

Intravenous urogram (IVU)

22
Q

when major organs are harvested from cadaveric donor, why are the kidneys harvested last?

A

The kidneys are harvested last to preserve circulation as long as possible.

23
Q

where is a donor kidney attached for an adult recipient? where is the donor kidney attached for a pediatric patient?

A

in adult donor kidney placed in the right pelvis; in pediatric patient kidney placed in midretroperitoneum posterior to colon.

24
Q

after the final step the ureteroneocystostomy is completed what is placed and why

A

A ureteral stent is placed to maintain potency due to normal natural edema that occurs postop.

25
Q

Incision used to access lower ureter & implant a donor kidney?

A

Gibson

26
Q

What is often associated with crytochidism?

A

The disorder is commonly associated with premature birth and is often accompanied by an inguinal hernia. The testicle may be found in the abdomen or most commonly in the inguinal canal.

27
Q

What will be removed and what incision is used in a simple orchiectomy? A radical orchiectomy? .

A

The testicle and epididymis will be removed through an anterolateral scrotal incision for a simple orchiectomy

28
Q

previously retrograde pyelogram

Serves same purpose as IVU

Contrast medium must be injected into the ureters with the use of a cystoscope because obstruction preventing antegrade process

A

Retrograde urogram

29
Q

Systemic absorption of irrigating fluid into venous circulation

Abnormal fluid load on circulatory system

A

TURP syndrome

30
Q

Defect associated with extrophy of the bladder and other developmental defects of the pelvis and GU system

Most severe form of bladder extrophy

A

Epispadius

33
Q

Kidney nerve supply

A

Kidney and nervous system communicate via Renal plexus. sympathetic nervous system will trigger vasoconstriction and reduce renal blood flow

34
Q

1st warning sign kidney is not functioning

A

Presence of edema in lower extremities
