 pelvis of the kidney. 



Descriptive Tcnns. The kidney has a superior and an inferior extremity ; an 

 anterior and a posterior surface; a strong fibrous capsule, which maybe easily 

 peeled off. The place where the nerves, vessels, and duct pass into the kidney 

 is called the hi/inn. (Fig. 183.) Cut through the kidney longitudinally, from 

 the outer to the inner border, and see the cornea! and pvramidal structure of the

kidney. Figure 613 (Morris) shows the interior of the sinus and the formation of 

 the pelvic portion of the ureter. The ureter having been inflated, examine for 

 one or more small ureteric arteries, branches of the spermatic, superior vesical, 

 and common iliac arteries on the ureter. Connected with the upper extremity 

 of the kidney by connective tissue, find the adrenals or suprarenal capsules. These 

 are ductless glands. Trace out their arteries to the renal and phrenic arteries 

 and to the aorta.
