Kidney 3D

  • Description                                                                
    • * Is retroperitoneal and extends from T12 to L3 vertebrae in the erect position.
    • * The right kidney lies a little lower than the left because the right lobe of the liver is large in size.
    • * A thin fibrous membrane of renal capsule closely invests the kidney and lines the renal sinus.
    • * Renal fascia divides the fat into perinephric and paranephric fat.
    • * Consists of the medulla and the cortex, containing 1 to 2 million nephrons (in each kidney).
    • * The renal artery gives 5 segmental branches, 4 from its anterior division and one from its posterior division.
    • * The lymphatics of the kidney drain into the lateral aortic nodes located at the level of origin of the renal arteries(L2).
    • * Is supplied by the renal plexus, an off shoot of the coeliac plexus.
