Remarks on the structure and course of renal efferent glomerular arterioles
Abstract
In the material of 30 kidneys from corpses of adults of both sexes the variations of structure and course of efferent glomerular arterioles in the superficial and juxtamedullary portions of the renal cortex have been described. The efferent arterioles of the glomeruli located in the superficial part of the renal cortex are short and after a short course they drained into the peritubular capillary plexus, whereas among the efferent arterioles of the glomeruli located in the juxtamedullary part of the cortex, two types have been differentiated: short and long ones, which demonstrated the variations of course, ramification and extent of vascularization.
