Q

What does the ureteric bud grow into and eventually form?

Q

Why is it possible that more than one renal artery may be present in the metanephric kidney?

23
Q

Bilateral renal agenesis causes…

A

death

24
Q

What causes a duplicated or branched ureter?

A

bifuraction of the ureteric bud

25
Q

What is an ectopic ureter?

A

when the ureter enters a urogenital sinus at some site OTHER than the dorsolateral wall of hte urinary bladder

26
Q

What causes supernumerary kidney?

A

division of the ureteric bud and its interactions with areas of hte metanephric mesoderm

27
Q

What happens if the metanephric mesoderm is fused?

A

pelvic kidney fails to migrate from the pelvis

28
Q

What is a crossed ectopic kidney?

A

when the kidney migrates to the opposite side and the two kidneys probably fuse

29
Q

What is a horseshoe kidney?

A

when two kidneys fuse at their inferior poles and their migration from the pelvis is BLOCKED by the IMA

30
Q

What causes multiple renal arteries?

A

segmental blood supply during development (multiple in 25% of people)

31
Q

What is multicystic dysplastic kidney disease?

A

kidney cysts occur d/t abnormal dilations of hte nephrons (usually thin segments)

32
Q

What divides the CLOACA into the rectum and urogenital sinu?

A

urorectal septum

33
Q

What is the urogenital sinus continuous with?

A

allantois

34
Q

What forms the urinary bladder nad is continuous w/ the allantois?

A

VESICLE PART of the urogenital sinus

35
Q

What forms URACHUS and later becomes the MEDIAN UMBILICAL LIGAMENT

A

allantois

36
Q

What part of the urogenital sinus becomes the BLADDER NECK and PROSTATIC URETHRA in the male and the ENTIRE URETHRA in the female?

A

pelvic part

37
Q

What happens to the phallic/spongy part of the urogenital sinus?

A

it grows toward the genital tubercle

38
Q

Where does the urorectal septum come in close contact w/ the cloacal membrane?

A

perineal body

39
Q

What forms the trigone of the bladder?

A

The MESONEPHRIC DUCT is incorporated into the posterior wall of the developing urinary bladder resulting in the trigone of the bladder

40
Q

Where does the epithelium of the bladder come from?

A

endoderm of the urogenital sinus

41
Q

What is the origin of the proximal male urethra?

A

urogenital sinus

42
Q

What is the origin of the distal male urethra?

A

ectodermal cord

43
Q

What is the origin of the female urethra?

A

urogenital sinus

44
Q

What is the CT and sm musc of the urinary bladder derived from?

A

splanchnic (visceral) mesenchyme

45
Q

What is exstrophy of the bladder?

A

a bladder that opens onto the anterior abdominal wall

46
Q

What causes exstrophy of the bladder?

A

failure of mesenchymal cells to migrate between ectoderm of the abdomen and cloaca during the 4th week>
anterior wall mesoderm degenerates>
exposes interior of the bladder

47
Q

What causes megacystis?

A

the prescence of a POSTERIOR URETHRAL VALVE that blocks the flow of urine from the bladder

48
Q

Where is megacystitis usually located?

A

in the area where the ejaculatory ducts enter the prostatic urethra
