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 |

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? |

|
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

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,
|
