WHAT LAYER DOES THE EMBRYO URINARY SYSTEM COME FROM ? WHAT AREA OF BODY?
INTERMEDIATE MESODERM (POSTERIOR ABDOMINAL WALL)
NAME THE THREE INITIAL KIDNEY SYSTEMS THAT FORM
PRONEPHROS/MESONEPHROS/METANEPHROS
WHAT HAPPENS TO PRONEPHROS
TRANISENT - GONE BY WEEK 4
WHAT HAPPENS TO MESONEPHROS
COMES AFTER PRONEPHROS IS GONE
- HAS THE LONG EPITHELIAL DUCT AKA THE WOLFIAN DUCT.
- THIS DUCT MOVES CAUDALLY TO ATTACH TO CLOACA
WOLFIAN DUCT
-CONNECTS WHAT
-WHAT OUTGROWS FROM THIS
-THIS EXISTS WITH THE _____ DUCT
- THIS DUCT CONNECTS THE MESONEPHROS TO THE CLOACA
- THE URETIC BUD (WHICH IS AN IMP STRUCTURE) OUTGROWS FROM THE CAUDAL WD
-COEXISTS WITH THE MULLERIAN DUCT ( REMEMBER THE MALE AND FEMALE SEX DETERMINING DUCTS = THE MIX OF HORMONES WILL DECIDE WHICH CONTINUES TO FORM).
WHAT HAPPENS TO METANEPHROS
THIS FORMS THE DEFINITIVE KIDNEY VIA RECIPRICOL INDUCTIVE SIGNALING WITH THE URETERIC BUD
SO WE KNOW THAT THE METANEPROS BECOMES THE ACTUAL ADULT KIDNEY = WHAT MAKES THE FILTRATION SYSTEM DEVELOP?
METANEPRHIC MESODERM GETS RECIPRICOL INDUCTIVE SIGNALING FROM THE URETERIC BUD AND THATS HOW IT FORMS
NAME THE PARTS OF THE FILTRATION SYSTEM
-GLOMERULUS
-BOWMANS CAPSULE
-PROXIMAL CONVOLUTED TUBLE
-LOOP OF HENLE
-DISTAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE
How does the collecting system develop?
comes from the URETERIC BUD via recipricol inductive signaling with the metanephric mesoderm
name the parts of the collecting system
collecting ducts
major and minor calyxes
renal pelivis
ureters (splitting of the ureteric bud can cause double ureters)
where doe the median umbilical ligament (the adult structure)come from?
allANtois=> urachus=>mediAN umbilical ligament
What is the allantois does obliterate to become the medial UL?
patent urachus => means urachal fistula at birth
- baby will pee thru the umbilicus
haha
urogenital sinus develops into
bladder and urethra
potter sequence
-cause?
-leads to?
-consequences/problems it may cause?
-malformation of the ureteric bud
-leads to bilateral renal agenesis (no kidneys on both sides)
- the baby usually swallows amniotic fluid / reabsorbs it in the GI/ then pees it out thru the kidneys. Without these kidneys they dont form enough aminiotic fluid so they cant float and they ened up touching the surfaces of the amniotic sac which leads to deformaties because the baby is compressed

"babies with POTTERS cant go POTTY"
another way of saying too little amniotic fluid is
oligohydraminos
name a few of the deformaties we see in potters sequence
LIMB DEFORMATIES= clubfoot/flipper hands
FACIAL DEFORMATIES= flat nose/ recessed chin
PULMONARY HYPOPLASIA= decreased expansion of the lungs because babies lungs mature by swallowing the fluid and if its not enough - it wont mature.
Will baby with Potters Sequence live?
NO.
with development the kidneys must ascend from the pelvis - they end up passing under what?
under the UMBILICAL ARTERIES
WHATS IT CALLED WHEN THE KIDNEY CANT PASS UNDER THE UMBILICAL ARTERIES
RENAL ECTOPY
HYDRONEPHROSIS/VESICOURETERIC REFLUX/ PAIN/UTI/PYELONEPHRITIS/RENAL STONES
PRESENTATION OF RENAL ECTOPY
DX AND TX OF RENAL ECTOPY
FOUND DURING ROUTING IMAGING

TX IS SURGICAL
what causes horseshoe kidney to occur
while ascending from the pelvis the kidneys are sometimes pushed together - causing the lower poles to fuse - horseshoe shape

this finally stops ascending when it hits the inferior mesenteric artery
symptoms of horseshoe kidney
90% asymptomatic
some found during UTI
-may cause obstruction, hematauria, abdominal pain
horseshoe kidney predisposes to
nephrolithiasis
DX AND TX of horseshoe
DX= prenatal ultrasound usually

TX= USUALLY NONE NEEDED BUT YOU CAN SURGICALLY DIVIDE THEM.
Muscles of the posterior abdominal wall
psoas major, psoas minor, illiacus, quadratus lumborum `
Retroperitoneal organs
A useful mnemonic to aid recollection of the abdominal retroperitoneal viscera is SAD PUCKER, or DUKE CRAPS:

S = Suprarenal glands (aka the adrenal glands)
A = Aorta/IVC
D = Duodenum (second and third segments [some also include the fourth segment] )
P = Pancreas (only head, neck, and body are retroperitoneal)
U = Ureters
C = Colon (only the ascending and descending colons, as transverse and sigmoid retain mesocolon)
K = Kidneys
E = Esophagus
R = Rectum

Another mnemonic going along with SAD PUCKER is 112 212111, this correlating to which ones are Primarily (1) or Secondarily (2) Retroperitoneal.

Alternatively, PADD (Pancreas, Ascending colon, Descending colon, Duodenum) can be used to remember which structures are secondarily retroperitoneal.
kidney spinal levels
t12-l3

right one lower due to liver
hilum includes what
entrance or renal arteries, veins, ureters,
renal artery supply
aorta
renal venous return
All back to the IVC
The left one also drains the blood from the gonad and the left adrenal gland + its longer because it has to cross across the aorta to get to the IVC.
does kiney have capsule
yes fibrous tissue
whats below the capsule
cortex (glomeruli_) then medulla (which holds the renal pyramids and papillae and major and minor calyces.
how do the ureters travel
pass UNDER the GONADAL arteries
then ANTERIOR to the external illiac artery right as it branches off from the common illiac in to the int and ext branches
then finally crosses UNDER the Uterine artery or vas deferens (water under the bridges of gonadal, uterine and vas deferes
where do ureters enter bladder
at the posterior inferior portion formind the trigone
prostate - surrounds what?
-secretes what?
- what courses through here
surrounds urethra right under the bladders
secretes an alkaline solution that makes up over 25% of semen
-the ejaculatory duct courses through the prostate before emptying into the urethra
histology of urethra
first transitional then pseudostratified columnar
then stratified squamous
4 parts of male urethra + action of each
preprostatic= we dontk now ,
prostatic= recieves semen from the ED,
membranous= surrounded by striated muscle and forms the voluntary external urethral sphincter + secretions from the bulbourethral glands empty here
penile= including BULBOUS and Pendulous sections = surrounded by littre glands (pseudostratified proximally and stratfied squamous distally
female urethra
shorter/ increased risk for UTI/ both stratified and pseudostratified can be seen.

Midpoint is surrounded by striatal muscle of exteranal uretheral sphincter
right gonadal vein drainage vs. left
right = IVC
left = left renal artery
benign prostatis hypertrophy
-happens in transitional zone of prostate
-it can lead to some urinary retention but cancer will lately cause that.
- cancers happen in the outer peripheral zone
Two types of glomeruli
There are two varieties of glomerulus– cortical and juxtamedullary. The latter are larger
(by about 20%), have a larger blood supply (some arising directly from interlobular
vessels) and presumably do more filtering.
what happens to the plasma that the glomerulus has filtered
collects in Bowman’s space and travels out the
glomerular urinary pole directly into the proximal tubule.
Histologically, there are four major elements in the glomerular tuft:
1. Endothelial cells – line the inside of the capillary lumen
2. Glomerular basement membrane –sandwiched between the fenestrated endothelium
and visceral epithelial cell layer.
3. Epithelial cells – visceral epithelial cells cover the outer part of the glomerular loops
and parietal epithelial cells reflect onto and line Bowman’s capsule; visceral epithelial
cells are an intrinsic part of the filtration apparatus membrane.
4. Mesangium – the stalk of cells and tissue tethering the glomerulus to the hilum.
