Hello, always a pleasure working with you. Bye

Acute Renal Failure

Structure and Function of the
Kidney


Primary unit of the
kidney is the nephron
➢ 1 million nephrons per
kidney
➢ Composed of a
glomerulus and a
tubule
➢ Kidneys receive 20%
of cardiac output
Renal Lecture Required Picture #1

Renal blood flow
Aorta  Renal artery 
interlobar arteries 
interlobular arteries 
afferent arterioles 
glomerulus  efferent
arterioles
➢ In the cortex 
peritubular capillaries
➢ In the juxtamedullary
region vasa recta
➢ Back to the heart through
the interlobular 
intralobar  renal veins


Glomerular Filtration Rate


Determined by the hydrostatic and oncotic
pressure within the nephron
➢ Hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus is
higher than in the tubule, so you get a net
outflow of filtrate into the tubul...
