Study Notes
Anatomia del Reni
- Cortical radiate: Vessels emanating from the renal cortex that supply blood to the nephron.
- Renal artery: Main artery transporting oxygenated blood from the heart to the kidneys for filtration.
- Renal vein: Vessel that carries deoxygenated blood away from the kidneys back to the heart.
Sistema Urinario
- Ureter: Tube that transports urine from each kidney to the bladder for excretion.
- Renal pelvis: Central cavity in the kidney where urine collects before entering the ureter.
Strutture Interna del Reni
- Major calyces: Large ducts that collect urine from the minor calyces and funnel it into the renal pelvis.
- Minor calyces: Smaller ducts that collect urine from the renal pyramids and channel it to the major calyces.
- Renal sinus: Cavity surrounding the renal pelvis, major and minor calyces, and blood vessels within the kidney.
Vascularizzazione del Reni
- Interlobar arteries: Arteries that run between renal lobes and branch into arcuate arteries.
- Arcuate artery and vein: Blood vessels that arch along the border of the renal cortex and medulla.
Struttura e Funzione Corticale
- Medula: Inner region of the kidney containing renal pyramids, essential for urine formation.
- Renal column: Extensions of the cortex between the renal pyramids, providing structural support.
- Medulla pyramid: Triangular-shaped structures in the medulla, involved in urine concentration and transport.
Funzione del Reni
- Cortex: Outer layer of the kidney, primarily involved in filtration and metabolic processes.
- Renal papilla of pyramid: Tip of the renal pyramid where urine exits into the minor calyx.
Elementi Funzionali del Reni
- Glomeruli: Network of capillaries where blood filtration begins, forming the initial filtrate of urine.
- Nephron: Functional unit of the kidney, consisting of glomerulus and tubules, responsible for urine formation.
