Internal gross anatomy of the kidney sectional view. Grossly the kidneys are bean-shaped structures and weigh about 150 g in the male and about 135 g in the female.
The left kidney is located at about the T12 to L3 vertebrae whereas the right is lower due to slight displacement by the liver.
Gross anatomy of the kidney. The left kidney is located at about the T12 to L3 vertebrae whereas the right is lower due to slight displacement by the liver. Upper portions of the kidneys are somewhat protected by the eleventh and twelfth ribs. Each kidney weighs about 125175 g.

Gross Anatomy of the Kidney. The kidneys are slightly protected by the ribs and are surrounded by fat for protection not shown. The left kidney is located at about the T12 to L3 vertebrae whereas the right is lower due to slight displacement by the liver.
Upper portions of the kidneys are somewhat protected by the eleventh and twelfth ribs. Gross Anatomy The kidneys are located on the posterior wall of the abdomen at waist level. Each kidney is roughly 10 cm long and 5 cm wide and is encased in a fibrous outer capsule called the renal capsule.
The main function of the kidneys is to control blood volume and composition1. Internal anatomy of the kidney overview The main unit of the medulla is the renal pyramid. There are 8-18 renal pyramids in each kidney that on the coronal section look like triangles lined next to each other with their bases directed toward the cortex and apex to the hilum.
The apex of the pyramid projects medially toward the renal sinus. The paired kidneys lie on either side of the spine in the retroperitoneal space between the parietal peritoneum and the posterior abdominal wall well protected by muscle fat and ribs. The left kidney is located at about the T12 to L3 vertebrae whereas the right is.
Describe the location extent and gross features of kidney. Kidneys are located retroperitoneally on the posterior abdominal wall on either side of vertebral column. It extends from T12 to L3 vertebra right kidney is slightly lower than the left.
The transpyloric plane lower border of L1 vertebra passes through the upper part of the hilum of right kidney and lower part. Gross anatomy of the kidney. Terms in this set 44 Capsule.

The kidney receives autonomic supply via both the sympathetic and parasympathetic portions. Cortex outer layer and medulla inner layer calyces. Main functional unit of the kidney.
Glomerulus and glomerular capsule - Renal tubule system. Proximal tubule convoluted and straight nephron loop. The kidneys lie retroperitoneally behind the peritoneum in the abdomen either side of the vertebral column.
They typically extend from T12 to L3 although the right kidney is often situated slightly lower due to the presence of the liverEach kidney is approximately three vertebrae in length. The adrenal glands sit immediately superior to the kidneys within a separate. The kidneys are retroperitoneal.
There are three tubes than enter and exit the kidney - the renal artery the renal vein and the ureter which carries urine. The left kidney is located at about the T12 to L3 vertebrae whereas the right is lower due to slight displacement by the liver. Upper portions of the kidneys are somewhat protected by the eleventh and twelfth ribs.

A frontal section through the kidney reveals an outer lighter-colored region called the renal cortex and an inner darker-colored region called the medulla. Surrounding the renal cortex is the renal capsule.
