Function of kidney pelvis?

The kidney pelvis is a funnel-shaped structure that collects urine from the kidney's calyces and funnels it into the ureter for transport to the bladder. It also contains the renal papilla, through which urine flows out of the kidney and into the ureter. The kidney pelvis helps maintain the flow and excretion of urine from the kidney.
