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.

What organ leaves an impression on the surface of the spleen?
Spleen: (Moore p263-264, Fig.2.46.,p256) The spleen is a large lymphoid organ which resides in the left upper quadrant (left hypochondriac region). It is the largest aggregation of lymphoid tissue in the body. It has a diaphragmatic surface and visceral surface. The visceral surface becomes impressed by surrounding organs in the cadaver forming: (1) the gastric surface where it contacts the stomach; (2) the renal surface where it contacts the left kidney; and (3) the colic surface where it contacts the transverse colon. These impressions demonstrate the relationships of the spleen in the living organism. The hilus of the spleen is the region where the vessels enter and leave. Arterial supply: splenic artery from celiac trunk.
What transprots arterial blood to the kidney?
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.
What is the renal hilius?
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.
