The renal artery is off to the side of the abdominal aorta, supplying and carrying a large portion of total blood to the kidneys. The helium is located above and behind the lung, and is where the pulmonary artery, superior and inferior pulmonary veins, lymphatic vessels, and bronchus with bronchial veins and arteries enter and exit.
Hilus is the space where the renal pelvis, artery and vein enter the kidney.

Actually, most healthy lymph nodes contain fatty hilus. Sometimes lymph nodes can have fatty hilus and it could turn out to be malignant.
The helix, or hilus
The notch through which the ureter leaves the kidney is called the renal hilum. It is the medial depression where the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter enter and exit the kidney.
The medical root word 'hilus' refers to the pit or depression in an organ where vessels and nerves enter (Latin).
The tube connecting the renal hilus of the kidney to the bladder is the ureter. In the renal hilum the ureter, renal blood vessels and nerves enter or exit the kidney.
It is a depression where vessels, nerves or ducts enter a bodily organ
There are actually four components and they are the cortex, medulla, pelvis, and hilus.
Renal artery or renal columns--- the arterial supply of each kidney is the renal artery. As the renal artery approaches the hilum, it divides into segmental arteries, each of which gives off several branchel called interlobar arteries, which travel through the renal columns to reach the cortex.
The renal hilus, also known as the renal hilum, is the concave area on the medial border of the kidney where the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter enter and exit the kidney. It serves as the entry and exit point for blood vessels and structures connecting the kidney to the rest of the urinary system.
This is the TOP of the lung (part toward the head).
