CONGENITAL ANOMALIES
• Malignant
1. Renal cell carcinoma
1. Clear cell
2. Papillary
3. Chromophobe
4. Collecting duct
2. Urothelial carcinoma of the pelvis
1. Squamous cell carcinoma
2. Transition cell carcinoma
FUNCTIONS
Sometime in december
• Filtration of small molecules from blood plasma
to form a filtrate
• Selective reabsorption of most of the water and
other molecules from the filtrate; leaving behind
excess and waste materials to be excreted
• Secretion of some secretory products directly
from blood into filtrate
determines its
permeability characteristics.
4. mesangial cells
> supports the entire glomerulus
> Basement membrane-like mesangial matrix forms a
meshwork through which the mesangial cells are
centered
> mesenchymal origin
contractile \ phagocytic
capable of proliferation
can lay down both matrix and collagen
secrets a number of biologically active
mediators
> akin to vascular smooth muscle cells and pericytes
