    Study Notes

    Urinary System

    • The kidneys are retroperitoneal organs.

    Kidney Location

    • The right kidney is located cranially to the right of the midline, near the diaphragm.
    • The left kidney is located caudally to the left of the midline, near the adrenal gland.

    Renal Sinus Function

    • The renal sinus is a fatty, connective tissue that surrounds the renal pelvis and calyces, and contains blood vessels and nerves.

    Renal Crest

    • In dogs, the renal crest is a transverse ridge on the ventral surface of the kidney.
    • In cats, the renal crest is absent.

    Feline Kidneys

    • Feline kidneys have a more lobulated appearance compared to dogs.

    Trigone Vesicae Function

    • The trigone vesicae is a smooth muscle layer in the bladder that aids in the accumulation of urine.

    Ligaments

    • The falciform ligament of the liver is associated with the round ligament of the liver in adults.
    • The lateral ligament of the urinary bladder is associated with the lateral cystourethral ligament in adults.

    Prostate Gland Function

    • The prostate gland in male dogs produces seminal fluid and aids in urination.

    Veterinary Anatomy I: CVM 710 Learning Objective

    • One of the learning objectives is to identify and describe the organs of the urinary system.

    Solid and Hollow Organs

    • Solid organs include the kidneys, liver, and prostate gland.
    • Hollow organs include the bladder and urethra.

    Urinary System Organs

    • The major organs of the urinary system are the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.

    Kidney Function

    • The functional unit of the kidney is the nephron, which filters blood and produces urine.

    Renal Pelvis Function

    • The renal pelvis collects urine from the calyces and funnels it into the ureter.

    Kidney Location in Body

    • The right and left kidneys are located in the retroperitoneal space, near the spine.

    Ureter-Bladder Relationship

    • The ureters empty urine into the bladder.

    Bladder Function

    • The bladder is a hollow, muscular organ that stores urine.

    Urethra Function

    • The urethra is a muscular tube that carries urine from the bladder to the external urethral orifice for excretion.
