Upper urinary tract
|
• Nephron
• Tubuli colligentes
|
Lower urinary tract
|
• Calices renales (Renal calices) • Pelvis renalis (Renal pelvis) • Ureter • Vesica urinaria (Urinary bladder ) • Urethra feminina / masculina |
Kidney
|
• Description: margo, hilum, sinus, facies,
extremitas /polus/
• capsula fibrosa, lobi renales
• Cortex: labyrinthus, columnae renales Bertini,
radii medullares
• Medulla: pyramides renales → papillae
renales (area cribrosa + foramina papillaria)
– zona interna + externa
|
Nephron
|
• Corpusculum renale Malphigi
– glomerulus (vessel skein)
– capsula glomeruli Bowmani
• Proximal tubule
• Intermediate tubule
• Distal tubule
• Juxtaglomerular apparatus
|
Corposculum renale
|
• Glomerulus
– vas afferens ® vas efferens (= arterioles)
– fenestrated capillars without diaphragm
• Capsula glomeruli (Bowman´s capsule)
– parietal lamina (flat monolayer epithelium)
– visceral lamina (podocytes with pedicles)
• Filtration barrier
– basal membrane - colagen IV. typ and heparan sulfate
– negative charge
• Mesangial cells
– cleaning function of filter
