  2. Renal pelvis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_pelvis

    Like the bony pelvis, the renal pelvis (/ ˈ r iː n əl ˈ p ɛ l v ɪ s /) gets its English name via Neo-Latin from the older Latin word pelvis, "basin", as in "wash basin". [4] In both cases the name reflects the shape of the structure, and in the case of the renal pelvis, it also reflects the function.

  3. Acetabular labrum tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetabular_labrum_tear

    One way to prevent a hip labrum tear is to decrease the pressure on the anterior labrum region. The labrum is about 2 to 3 mm thick but is wider and thinner in the anterior portion. Studies have found that in the United States and European countries, hip labral tears are commonly found in the anterior region. [1]

    Renal neoplasms and abscesses are rare in ruminants. [189] Obstructive uropathy (obstruction of urine flow from one or both kidneys) can lead to hydronephrosis with dilatation of the renal pelvis. [190] Kidney stones can also be formed in the kidneys (nephrolithiasis). [191] The cause of acute kidney injury in most cases is ischemic or toxic ...

  5. Renal sinus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_sinus

    The renal sinus is a cavity within the kidney which is occupied by the renal pelvis, renal calyces, blood vessels, nerves and fat. The renal hilum extends into a large cavity within the kidney occupied by the renal vessels, minor renal calyces, major renal calyces, renal pelvis and some adipose tissue .

  6. Acetabular labrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetabular_labrum

    The acetabular labrum (glenoidal labrum of the hip joint or cotyloid ligament in older texts) is a fibrocartilaginous ring [1] [2] [3] which surrounds the circumference of the acetabulum of the hip, deepening the acetabulum. The labrum is attached onto the bony rim and transverse acetabular ligament. It is triangular in cross-section (with the ...

  7. Renal circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_circulation

    The renal circulation supplies the blood to the kidneys via the renal arteries, left and right, which branch directly from the abdominal aorta. Despite their relatively small size, the kidneys receive approximately 20% of the cardiac output .

  8. Kidney (vertebrates) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_(vertebrates)

    Blood enters the kidney through the renal artery, which in the multilobar kidney then branches in the region of the renal pelvis into large interlobar arteries that pass through the renal columns. [ 62 ] [ 63 ] The pyramids consist mainly of tubules that transport urine from the cortex, that produces it by blood filtration, to the tips of the ...

  9. Renal hilum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_hilum

    From anterior to posterior, the renal vein exits, the renal artery enters, and the renal pelvis exits the kidney. On the left hand side the hilum is located at the L1 vertebral level and the right kidney at level L1-2. The lower border of the kidneys is usually alongside L3.
