The renal pelvis is directly formed by the convergence of the major calyces, which are the large cup-like structures that collect urine from the minor calyces. The minor calyces receive urine from the renal pyramids in the kidneys. Once urine is collected in the renal pelvis, it is then transported to the ureter for excretion.
What else can I help you with?

Renal Pelvis
The cavity within the kidney that collects urine?
The cavity within the kidney that collects urine is called the renal pelvis. From the renal pelvis, urine travels down the ureter to the bladder for storage and eventual excretion.
What are the branches of the renal pelvis?
renal pyramids
Can female fetus have renal pelvis dilatation?
Yes, both genders can have dilatation of the renal pelvis.
Is Pyeloplasty the surgical repair of the renal pelvis?
Yes, pyeloplasty is surgical repair of the renal pelvis.
Distal convoluted tubules flow directly into what structures?
The structures that distal tubes flow into are the collecting ducts of the kidneys. The collecting ducts are small tubes through which urine flows into the renal pelvis.
What isa the function renal pelvis in excretory system?
The renal pelvis collects urine filtrate from the collecting tubules.
What is cuplike collection region in renal pelvis?
The cuplike collection region in the renal pelvis is called the renal calyx. It serves as a structure that collects urine from the kidney nephrons before it passes into the renal pelvis for further transport to the ureter.
