  2. Metanephric adenoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metanephric_adenoma

    Metanephric adenoma (MA) is a rare, benign tumour of the kidney, that can have a microscopic appearance similar to a nephroblastoma (Wilms tumours), [1] or a papillary renal cell carcinoma. It should not be confused with the pathologically unrelated, yet similar sounding, mesonephric adenoma .

  3. Nephrogenic adenoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephrogenic_adenoma

    Nephrogenic adenoma is a benign growth typically found in the urinary bladder. It is thought to result from displacement and implantation of renal tubular cells, as this entity in kidney transplant recipients has been shown to be kidney donor derived. [1] This entity should not be confused with the similar-sounding metanephric adenoma.

    Metanephric dysplastic hematoma of the sacral region (MDHSR) has been described by Cozzutto and Lazzaroni-Fossati in 1980, [1] by Posalaki et al. in 1981 [2] and by Cozzutto et al. in 1982. [3] Three additional cases were seen by Finegold.

    One cause of this can be increased renin production due to narrowing of the renal artery, or a juxtaglomerular cell tumor that produces renin. These will lead to secondary hyperaldosteronism, which will cause hypertension, high blood sodium, low blood potassium, and metabolic alkalosis. [citation needed]

    The mesonephros in reptiles functions for some time after birth simultaneously with the metanephros, while later the metanephric kidneys become permanent and the mesonephros degenerates. [ 38 ] The kidneys in reptiles are located mainly in the caudal part (away from the head) of the abdominal cavity [ 49 ] [ 50 ] or retroperitoneally (behind ...

    Diagram shows the sequential development and degeneration of the pronephros and mesonephros, and the induction of the ureteric bud and metanephric mesenchyme during kidney development in mammals. The development of the kidney proceeds through a series of successive phases, each marked by the development of a more advanced kidney: the ...
