Double tube from kidney to bladder?
The tube that travels from the kidney to the bladder is called the ureter, not to be confused with the tube that travels from the bladder to the exit point from the body, which is called the urethra.
What can you use for kidneys on a 3d science project?
First, do your research on Renal function!Create your display background and stand (like for a diorama).Using modeling clay, create a kidney as if cut in half lengthwise to expose the interior anatomy. Don't forget the Renal Artery and Vein and the ureter.Sculpt out the calyces and other parts. Into the kidney, thread a piece of tubing from the the renal artery. The tubing will not be visible inside the kidney model, but will exit inside the sculpted ureter (leave ends open).Dry or bake at 110 degrees per directions so you do not melt the tubing! Let cool.Paint the parts to match the best illustrative picture you can find. Let dry then attach it to the display and label everything.Use a piece of tubing attached to a large syringe (like for basting). have a Clamp on the lower end. Fill the syringe with water. You will not see it as it will be attached behind the display.At the bottom, use a small bag or jar to represent the bladder. in the bottom half of the tube (a j loop inside the kidney model), add yellow food coloring so that when you demonstrate your renal function and explain it you can produce signature yellow urine. Be sure to explain that the yellow actually comes from the broken down red blood cells and is tinted by residual bilirubin (darker with dehydration, virtually clear when well hydrated).Your details and layout on the presentation board and ability to explain renal function is the important part. The "working demo" is more for an extra five points of fun :)
What is the medical term meaning surgical removal of urethral adhesions?
This procedure is called lysis of adhesions. It must be done very carefully around structures such as the ureter, as well as nearby arteries, veins and nerves.UreterolysisThe procedure to free adhesion's from the Ureter is called Ureterolysis. This can now be carried Laparoscopically(Minimal invasive surgery) but sometimes may require open surgery. It is a fairly simple procedure and may just require an overnight stay in Hospital.
When your kidney is removed is the ureter also?
Yes, when a kidney is removed during a surgical procedure called a nephrectomy, the ureter is typically also removed. The ureter is the tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder, and it is usually excised along with the kidney to ensure complete removal of any potentially affected tissue. In some cases, however, the ureter may be preserved if it is not involved in the underlying condition.
What is the procedure to repair a damaged ureter?
Repairing a damaged ureter typically involves a surgical procedure. The surgeon may perform a ureteral reimplantation, where the damaged segment is removed and the healthy ends are reconnected, or they may use a ureteral stent to support healing. In cases of extensive damage, a segment of intestine may be used to reconstruct the ureter. Post-surgery, patients are monitored for complications and may require follow-up imaging to ensure proper healing.
What is the cpt code for ureteroureterostomy performed for urinary tract obstruction?
The CPT code for ureteroureterostomy, a surgical procedure performed to bypass an obstruction in the urinary tract by connecting one ureter to another, is 50545. This code specifically refers to the reconstruction of the ureter. It is important to confirm the specifics of the procedure and any related codes based on the patient's unique circumstances.
When does lithotripsy require a stent?
Some patients may have a stent placed prior to the lithotripsy procedure. A stent is a plastic tube placed in the ureter which allows the passage of gravel and urine after the ESWL procedure is completed.
Does the ureter go through the vagina?
No, the ureter does not go through the vagina. The ureters are tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder, running alongside the vagina but not through it. In females, the urethra, which is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body, is separate from the vagina.
What is upper ureter and middle ureter and lower ureter and juexavesical ureter?
upper third: from renal pelvis to the top edge of the sacrummiddle third: from the top edge to the lower edge of the sacrumdistal third: lower edge of the sacrum to the urinary bladder
What is the size of womans ureter in width and length?
The woman's ureter typically measures about 25 to 30 centimeters (10 to 12 inches) in length. In terms of width, the ureter is generally around 3 to 4 millimeters in diameter. These dimensions can vary slightly among individuals.
What part carries waste from the kidney to the bladder?
The ureter.
What is the structure and function of the ureter in a cat?
The ureter is a tube connected to the kidneys and bladder in cats. The function of the ureter is to move urine to the bladder.
What does transvesical ureterolithotomy through the bladder remove?
Transvesical ureterolithotomy through the bladder is a surgical procedure used to remove kidney stones that have traveled into the ureter. This involves making an incision in the bladder to access the ureter and remove the stones, helping to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications associated with kidney stones.
The color of the ureter?
the color of the ureter is a reddish, browney kind of color
