To understand:
▪ ‘Physiologic’ freedom
▪ Components of Urinary/Excretory/Renal system
▪ External features & location of kidneys & applied aspects.
▪ Inner structure of kidneys

Kidneys play very imp role
to keep
Constancy of ‘internal milieu’
&
allow ‘physiologic freedom’
Introduction to Renal system
![Page 4: Renal Physiology Introductory Lecture](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022811/621b818ae1861a1735534fe2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Physiologic freedom is possible as
kidneys can modulate the processes of excretion
according to need.

Excretory System/Urinary System-components
![Page 6: Renal Physiology Introductory Lecture](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022811/621b818ae1861a1735534fe2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Excretary System/Urinary System-
Structures and function
▪Kidneys
▪Urinary tract
▪Urinary bladder
▪Urethra

External structure of Kidneys
▪Kidneys –
paired, reddish, bean
shaped organs,

Location of Kidneys-Located retroperitoneally
![Page 9: Renal Physiology Introductory Lecture](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022811/621b818ae1861a1735534fe2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
if these lower ribs are fractured (#) by trauma –
they can puncture the kidneys & cause major damage.
Applied aspect

Applied: ‘Loin to Groin’ Pain
![Page 11: Renal Physiology Introductory Lecture](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022811/621b818ae1861a1735534fe2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Causes
▪renal stone
▪pyelonephritis
▪perinephric abscess

*Because the kidney is directly anterior to this area, tapping
disturbs the inflamed tissue, causing pain.

Inner structure of kidney
A frontal section through kidney shows two
distinct regions:
1. Superficial (outer) renal cortex
2. Deep (inner region) is called renal medulla
Together, renal cortex & renal pyramids constitute renal parenchyma.

Inner structure of kidney - renal lobe

Salient features of the lecture
As we know morphological and anatomical characteristics –we can relate these to
functioning of kidney
Components of excretory system:
Location-r
Loin to Groin Pain, Tenderness of Costovertebral angle / Renal angle
Two distinct regions in kidney…
Nephrons →
Aorta → Renal Artery →
The renal lobe

Urinary tract actually includes
1. Ureter
2. Ureter and pelvis
3. Calyces, pelvis and ureter
4. Calyces and ureter
In kidney, pyramids represent:
1. Cortex
2. Medulla
3. Cortex and medulla
4. Renal column
Kidneys are situated at this vertebrae level:
1. L1-L4
2. L2-L4
3. T8-T12
4. T12-L3
Afferent Arteriole is a branch of
1. Segmental artery
2. Arcuate artery
3. Interlobar artery4. Cortical radiate artery
