Q

Describe the pronephros.

A

Appears early in 4th week in cervical region

  • ducts run caudally into cloaca
  • degenerates pretty quickly but ducts remain

Q

Describe the mesonephros.

A

Appears late in 4th week

  • ducts develop early from pronephros ducts
  • induce tubule from surrounding intermediate mesoderm
  • produces urine
  • has glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule
  • degenerates by 12th week

Q

Describe the metanephros.

A

Appears during 5th week and functional by 9th-10th week

  • ureteric bud: from mesonephric duct and branches into sacral part of intermediate mesoderm
  • metanephric blastema: from nephrogenic cord

Q

How do nephrons form?

A

1) Metanephric blastema can bud off and give rise to metanephric vesicles
2) Vesicles form metanephric tubules
3) Proximal end will form glomerular capsule
4) Tubule differentiates into PCT, DCT, and nephron loop

Q

In what direction does the renal hilum rotate?

A

Medially by 90 deg

17
Q

Where do renal arteries originally branch from?

A

Common Iliac Artery

18
Q

What is renal agenesis?

A

Failure of development of kidney(s)

19
Q

What is an incomplete division of the ureter?

A

Kidney has 2 ureters that eventually join later and make on single ureter

20
Q

What is a complete division of the ureter?

A

Kidney has 2 ureters that do not join and remain separate until bladder

21
Q

What is a horseshoe kidney?

A

Kidneys fused together at inferior poles

-low lying

22
Q

What happens if there are extra renal vessels?

A

Multiple renal arteries that can potentially obstruct the ureter

23
Q

What is multicystic dysplastic kidney disease?

A

Malformation of the kidney during fetal development

-irregular cysts of varying sizes from loop of henle

24
Q

What is the difference between polycystic and multicystic kidney disease?

A

Polycystic: normally affects both kidneys
Multicystic: normally one kidney

25
Q

What are the three parts of the urogenital sinus?

A

1) Vesical part: most of bladder
2) Pelvic part: neck of bladder
3) Phallic part: spongy urethra in males and lining of vaginal vestibule in females

26
Q

How is trigone formed?

A

1) Mesonephric duct incorporated in posterior wall of bladder
2) Ureteric bud attaches, connecting openings of buds into bladder wall
3) Mesonephric duct opening carried inferiorly to pelvic urethra

*Trigone is blending of mesonephric and ureteric ducts

27
Q

What type of mesoderm is found in trigone?

A

Intermediate mesoderm

28
Q

What type of mesoderm is found in submucosa and muscles of bladder?

A

Splanchnic mesoderm

29
Q

What is bladder continuous with?

A

Allantois –> urachus

30
Q

How is medial umbilical ligament formed?

A

Urachus extends from apex of bladder to umbilicus forming ligament

31
Q

What is exstrophy of the bladder?

A

Congenital abnormality: skin over the lower abdominal wall does not form properly

  • posterior wall of bladder is open and exposed on the outside of abdomen
  • defective closure of ventral abdominal wall
32
Q

What is epispadias?

A

Urethral opening is on dorsum rather than ventral side of genital tubercle

33
Q

What are urachal cysts?

A

Remnants of epithelial lining of urachus that can become infected and enlarged

34
Q

What is an urachal sinus?

A

End of urachus remains open into bladder or umbilicus

35
Q

What is an urachal fistula?

A

Entire urachus remains patent and allows urine to escape from umbilical orifice

36
Q

From what cells are suprarenal glands derived from?

A

Neural Crest Cells
