What are the protective layers of renal tissue from the layer next to the kidney to the most outer layer?

The protective layers of renal tissue, from the layer next to the kidney to the most outer layer, include the renal capsule, which is a thin fibrous layer directly covering the kidney. Outside the renal capsule is the perirenal fat, providing cushioning and insulation. Beyond the perirenal fat is the renal fascia, a connective tissue layer that anchors the kidney to surrounding structures. Finally, the most outer layer is the pararenal fat, which surrounds the renal fascia and further protects the kidney.
