does gerota's fascia fuse inferiorly? 2 consequence?
loosely, if at all
pus and blood can force its way into the pelvis
kidneys move w/ respiartion (poor support for transplant, so kidney placed at iliac fossa
what is the relationship of structures entering the hilum of kidney?
Vein anterior
Artery
pelvis posterior
what is the level of renal arteries?
relation to IVC?
L1-L2
R renal a. pass post to IVC
Where do the renal veins drain? what drains into them?
IVC
L gonadal and L suprarenal veins drain into L renal artery
R gonadal and R suprarenal drain into IVC
what are the five segmental aa?
doe they anastamose? consequences?
superior segmental
anterior superior segmental
anterior inferior segmental
inferior segmental
posterior segemental

little anastamoses
surgically resectable unit
occlusion can cause necrosis
how does ureter transport urine?
peristalsis few drops at a time 12-20 second intervals
what is the course of ureters?
diff in males and females? clinical?
retroperitoneal
descends on psoas major
crossed superiorly by gonadal vessels (water under bridge)
at pelvic brim, crosses bifurc of common iliac a.
lateral pelvic wall to
pierce bladder at suplat angles of trigone

Males: crossed by vas deferens
females: crossed by uterine a.
clamp uterine a. w/o clamping ureter in hysterectomy
what are three sites of constriction in ureters?
narrowest?
uretoplevic jxn
pelvic brim
entrance to bladder- narrowest
where is pain of renal stones felt?
cutaneous dermatomes T11-L2
what is the relation of ureter's blood supply?
abdominal half: medially
pelvic: laterally
relations of bladder in female:
A: pubic symphysiss and retropubic space
P: superior part of vagina
S: peritoneum of the vesicouterine pouch
I: urogenital diapgragm
L: obturator internus m. and pelvic diaphragm
relationship of bladder in male:
A: pubic symphysiss and retropubic space
P: seminal vesicles recturm, retrovesical pouch of peritoneum, terminal prts of vasa deferentia
S: peritoneum
I: prostate gland
L: obturator internus m. and pelvic diaphragm
How does the bladder change when full? why is this relevant?
it expands into the abdominal cavity, and since it is directly internal to the abdominal wall, a catheter can be inserted through the ab wall w/o entering the peritoneal space
relations of bladder in female:
A: pubic symphysiss and retropubic space
P: superior part of vagina
S: peritoneum of the vesicouterine pouch
I: urogenital diapgragm
L: obturator internus m. and pelvic diaphragm
what does a baby's bladder look like? when will it be like an adults?
infant: fusiform and lies entirely in abdominal cavity above pubic symphysis
becomes normal at puberty
relationship of bladder in male:
A: pubic symphysiss and retropubic space
P: seminal vesicles recturm, retrovesical pouch of peritoneum, terminal prts of vasa deferentia
S: peritoneum
I: prostate gland
L: obturator internus m. and pelvic diaphragm
what is the trigone?
a triangular portion of the bladder; smooth even when empty; slit like orifices at corners for ureters; one way flap valves; filling the bladder clamps off the ureters,
How does the bladder change when full? why is this relevant?
it expands into the abdominal cavity, and since it is directly internal to the abdominal wall, a catheter can be inserted through the ab wall w/o entering the peritoneal space
what do detrusor muscles do?
tighten when bladder contracts to prevent reflux into ureters
