Kidney is the one of the vital organ of the body, about 1250 ml blood flow through kidney per minute.
Each
kidney receives blood from renal artery branch of descending Aorta
↓
Each kidney divides into anterior and
posterior division (Anterior has 4 branches Apical; Upper & anterior;
Middle & anterior; Lower)
↓
Each
divided into segmental arteries
↓
Lobar
artery (one on each pyramid)
↓
Interlobar
artery (just before entering the kidney substance)
↓
Arcuate
artery (just the level of coeticomedullary junction)
↓
Interlobular
artery
↓
Afferent
arteriole
↓
Glomerular
capillaries

Efferent

Peritubular

Some
peculiarities are
·
Branches
of renal arteries are end arteries
·
Renal
blood passes through two sets of capillary plexuses ( Glomerular plexus & Peritubular plexus )
·
Blood
circulation of cortex 5 times more than medulla
·
Along
the lateral border of the kidney is avascular because the anterior and posterior
divisions do not anastomose across this line
·
Each
kidney present five independent vascular systems such as Apical; Upper & anterior;
Middle & anterior; Lower And the posterior )
