GU systems come from embryonic:

When, how many, cervical nephrotomes appear? Fxn?

Mesonephros: What, how many, when, where?

What do fxnal nephric units form from? How many by the 5th week?
intermediate mesoderm, nephrogenic cord

4th week, 5-7 - no fxn

4th week, tubules within nephrogenic cords, about 40, craniocaudal

mesonephric tubules - about 20 pair
Where do mesonephric tubules drain to?
How does this form?
fusion of tubule tip with duct provides
passage from excretory unit--> cloaca
When, where do mesonephric ducts form?

Empty where?

When do mesonephros degenerate? From when to when are they functional?

Terminal (3rd) kidneys form from? Where do they form?
24 days - dorsolateral to mesonephric tubules

into ventrolateral cloaca

post week 10
functional weeks 6-10

metanephros - form from sacral intermediate mesoderm, ascend to final position induced to form metanephric blastema by the ureteric buds
What induces metanephros formation?

How long do the metanephros develop lobules (i.e how long ureteric bud bifurcation and lobule formation continue)?

What comes from the metanephros (ureteric buds)?
ureteric buds signalling

until week 16

ureter, renal pelvis, major/minor calyces, collecting ducts
What buds out of cloaca and what does it become?
Allantois (lumen), closed it becomes the urachus (median umbilical ligament)
Expressed by mesenchyme, makes tissue ready for ureteric bud induction:

stimulates branching of ureteric bud:

proliferation of mesenchyme:

Blood plasma from glomerular capillaries begins to be filtered by:
WT1

GDNF, HGF

FGF2, BMP7

by the 10th week
Where are kidney's "formed"
pelvis but ascend to lumbar region with progressive revascularization from common iliac and aorta
Fxn of urine in embryo?

bilateral renal agenesis/obstruction may cause:

Kidneys fused at base (lower pole): (occurence)

What is the cloaca divided into?

Urinary bladder and urethra develop from:
supplement amniotic fluid (floating in pee)

oligohydramnios- insufficient amount of amniotic fluid

horseshoe kidney- most common

hindgut endoderm

cloaca divided by urorectal septum into urogenital sinus & rectum
What gives rise to spongy/penile urethra?

membranous/prostatic urethrae?

What becomes the bladder?

Mesonephric ducts will eventually become:
definitive urogenital sinus

neck of urogenital sinus

vesical portion of urogenital sinus

the ductus deferens
Describe the movement of the mesonephric ducts, ureteric buds in the bladder:

portion of bladder incorporated from mesonephric duct:

Failure of midline closure of inferior abd wall:
mesonephric ducts move inferiorly, open into the prostatic urethra, ureters open into bladder

trigone

exstrophy of the bladder
Three defects of the urinary bladder/urachus:

Two defects of ureters:

Ectopic more common in boys/girls?
continuous with allantois
urachal fistula, urachal sinus
urachal cysts

bifid, ectopic (DUPLICATE)

more common in girls
Persistent allantoic diverticulum
allows urine to escape through
umbilical sinus
urachal sinus
Unilateral renal agenesis - can be discovered during workup for what?

What causes agenesis?

increased eye width, flattened nose, large low-set ears from oligohydramnios:
male infertility

absence/abnormality of mesonephric duct

Potter facies- associated with bilateral renal agenesis
Renal dysplasia/agenesis often result from mutations in what gene?

Congenital polycystic kidney disease:
Inheritance? Morphology?

Tx for adult polycystic disease? Inheritance?
GDNF

autosomal recessive - 1:10000
lesions in PCT, dilation/cyst formation, tissue destruction - cysts are dilated nephrons

transplant - autosomal dominant
Cancer of kidney, usually affects kids under 5, mutations in WT1 gene:

Failure of Rathke's folds to develop: What is defect?

Failure of Rathke's and Tourneux's folds to develop:
Results in what for femailes?
Wilm's tumor

rectoprostatic fistula- defect in partitioning of the cloaca

rectovesical fistula
in females - two vaginas, uteruses emptying to bladder
Anal canal ends as blind sac below pelvic diaphragm:

Rectum ends as blind pouch above the pelvis diaphragm:

Clinical prognosis for rectovesical fistula? Why?


Clinical prognosis for rectourethral fistula? Why?
Anal agenesis

anorectal agenesis - more common

poor - poorly developed sacral bones, sphincters

good- needs colostomy before definitive repair period
Between weeks______ mesonephric duct and ureteric bud incorporation into _____ ______ of urinary bladder.
Between weeks 4-6, mesonephric duct and ureteric bud incorporation into posterior wall of urinary bladder.
RESULT from growth of two ureteric buds... problems arise with bladder development original, caudal ureter opens normally, cranial ureter follows mesonephric duct
duplicate or ectopic ureter
Characterized by multifocal lesions of the
proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle… that result in dilation and cyst formation and destruction of the surrounding tissue.
Congenital polycystic kidney disease
