1
Q
Where is the retroperitoneal space?
A
- found behind the peritoneal sac
- only covered by paritetal peritoneum on the anterior surface
- retroperitoneal organs are immobile
- secured to the posterior body wall
2
Q
Is the urinary system retroperitoneal structure or intraperitoneal?
A
retroperitoneal
2
Q
What is the function of the urinary system?
A
- it functions to filter our lood and detoxify the blood
- removing waste
- maintaining balance with water and ions in the blood that control and regulate blood pressure and keep it within normal ranges or increase it it needed or decreases if needed
2
Q
What are the structures of the urinary system?
A
- Kindey’s, Urters, Urinary bladder, Urethra, Adrenal glands
- we have a right and a left kidney, the two year ureters that bring the urine toward the urinary bladder that’s in the pelvis
- uretha which is the most distal part of the urinary system
- it allows us to excrete the urine into the external environment
2
Q
What is the difference between the deep and outer muscles and deep muscles?
A
Outer muscles = anterior abdominal wall (in front of the peritoneal cavity)
- external oblique, internal oblique rectus abdominis, transversus abdominis
Deep muscles = Retroperitoneal (behind the organs and peritoneum)
- travsversus abdominis, quadratus lumborum, psoas major, iliacus
2
Q
What are the retroperitoneal muscles?
A
Transversus abdomis (horizontal fibers coming from posteriorly and wraps all th way anteriorly), quadratus lumborum (vertical fibers, psoas major , ilacus
3
Q
What direction does the transversus abdominis?
A
horizontal fibers coming from posteriorly and wraps all the way anteriorly
3
Q
Which way does Quadratus Lumborum muscle go?
A
- vertical fibers
4
Q
What is iliopsoas?
A
Iliacus and Psoas major
4
Q
Where is the renal vein located at the hilum?
A
Most anteriorly, carries deoxygenated blood that has been detoxified by the kidney
- away from the kidney back towards to the heart
4
Q
Where is the renal artery?
A
Found posterior to the renal artery
- carry oxygenated blood that has to be detoxified towards the kidney
4
Q
Where are the ureters found?
A
Posterior to the kidneys
- bring urine away from the kidney down towards the urinary bladder
4
Q
What is the renal capsule for?
A
specifically for the kidney
- connective tissue that kind of keep all of the kidney tissue together
4
Q
What happens at the acetabulum?
A

4
Q
What is the renal vein?
A
- drain the kidney
- lost it’s oxygen, deoxygenated, high in carbon dioxide
- bring blood back to the kidney
4
Q
What is the location of the right abdominal renal artery?
A
Behind the IVC posterior
5
Q
What is the location of the left renal vein?
A
Under the superior mesenteric artery
- the left renal vein is longer than the right renal vein
5
Q
Where do the gonadal arteries?
A
- Gonadal arteries are paired branches from the abdominal aorta, they are just below the superior mesenteric artery
- terticlar arteries and ovarian arteries inside or below the pelvis
5
Q
What is the order of the arteries in the kidneys?
A
- Renal arteries
- Segmental arteries
- Interlobar arteries (between the lobes of the kidneys, between renal pyramids)
- Arcuate artery (turn and between cortex and medulla)
- Cortical Radiate arteries (supplying the cortex)
- Peritubular capillaries or vasa recta (supply the inner kidney, the medulla and help with reabsorption)
5
Q
What is the order of the veins?
A
- Cortical rediate vein (in the cortex, draining)
- arcuate veins (found between the cortex and medulla)
- Interlobar vein (found between each pyramid)
- Segmental vein
- Renal vein (deoxygenated blood that has been detoxified by the kidneys, goes back towards the heart)
5
Q
Blood filteration vessel filteration start?
A
In the renal corpuscle
5
Q
How is the filteration happening?
A
- Blood enters the glomerulus at high pressure
- the walls of the glomeruslus are slightly leaky
- this allows water, waste, and small molecules to filter out of the blood into the Bowman’s Capsule
- the filtered fluid then flows into tiny tubes (renal tubules) to form urine
5
Q
What gets picked up in the renal capsule?
A
Water and molecules because the glomercular are leaky
- blood don’t come out
- water and waste products are called filterate which eventually becomes urine
5
Q
How are concentration gradients maintained?
A
- water and ions are being exchanged to help to make concentration gradient
- maintain blood volume back into the bloodstream and that will concentrate the filterate to make it as concentrated as possible
5
What do the peritubular capillaries do?
- supply oxygen to kidney tissues so they can function
- after dropping off oxygen, they take waste carbon dioxide from kidney tissues
- after this exchange, the blood become low in oxygen and is carried away by the renal vein, which takes it back to the heart
5
What is the order of collecting urine?
Collecting duct (terminal end of the nephron)
Renal Papilla
Minor Calyx
Major Calyx
Renal Pelvis
Urether
5
What blood supply do the ureters get from?
Receive blood supply from branches of renal arteries, gonadal arteries, iliac arteries
5
What is the location of ureters?
The ureters descend, going to pass behind the gonadal artereis but over top of the external iliac arteries
- Ureter is passing deep or posterior to the gonadal artery but superficial or anterior to the external iliac
5

detrusor muscle, similar to the rugae of the muscle
- allow the bladder to expand as it fills ith urine
5
What is the trigone muscle for?
Trigone muscle
- posterior and inferior, smooth
- Trigone is smooth, so we don't see rugae (folds) in this area

- allow urine to flow from th ekidney sinto the bladder
5
What is the Urethral Orifice?

5
What is the first step in the Micturition Process?
1. Stretch receptors sense bladder is full
5
What is the second step?
- The stretch repceptor that are sensing that's it's being stretched and filling up
- those send signals to the spinal cord and up to the brain, to a region called the Pontine Mictuition Center
- ot is going to coordinate the response
5
What is the third step?
-The activation of parasympathetic is going to detrusor muscle to contract to help force urine out
- in this time duration center is also inhibiting sympathetic
5
What is the fourth step?
- it inhibits the sympathetics that allows the internal urethral sphincter to relax and dilate
5
What is the fifth step?
- voluntary that is the conscious control of the external urethral sphincter causing it to relax
6
Kidney stones
- buildup of minerals, mineral deposits that get caught in the urinary tract
- areas in where are natural narrowing in urinary tract
6
Where are kidney stones most common?
Uteropelvic junction: where we go from the wide renal pelvic to the skinny ureter where the ureter crosses over teh external eliac to descend into the pelvis
- because the pelvis is in a different plant, it causes a natural kink
Uterovesical: wehre the ureter is entering the bladder,
6
How to clear Kidney Stones?
Drink lots of water to try and pass naturally, muscle relaxants
6
How to detect shockwave litotripsy?
Shockwave Lithotripsy: uses sound waves to break kidney or ureter stones into smaller pieces that pass naturally
