The venous drainage of the kidney primarily occurs through the renal veins, which collect deoxygenated blood from the renal cortex and medulla. Each kidney has its own renal vein that drains into the inferior vena cava on the right side and into the left renal vein on the left side. The left renal vein also receives blood from the left gonadal vein and lumbar veins before it empties into the inferior vena cava. This venous system ensures efficient return of blood to the heart after filtration in the kidneys.
What else can I help you with?
What receives all the venous blood from kidney?
renal vein
Which vein drain the walls of the heart?
The coronary sinus provides venous drainage to the myocardium. There is, however, direct drainage into the ventricles as well.

What is testicular varices and what causes it?
Testicular varices is the condition where there is compression if the venous drainage in the testicles. This is mainly caused by the nutcracker syndrome.
Drains into the scleral venous sinus?
Aqueous humor drains into the scleral venous sinus, also known as the canal of Schlemm. This drainage pathway helps maintain intraocular pressure by allowing fluid to exit the eye. A blockage in this drainage system can lead to increased pressure inside the eye, known as glaucoma.
What does this mean The Kidney also exhibits a parachymal bridge in the interpolar region suggesting a partially duplicated pelvicaliceal system?
This means that the kidney has a partially duplicated pelvicaliceal system in the interpolar region. This means that there are two separate drainage systems in the kidney in this area, instead of the usual single drainage system. One of the possible consequences of this duplication is an increased risk of urinary tract infections and kidney stones.
As venous blood is drained from the kidney what path does it follow?
cortical radiate veins, arcuate veins, interlobar veins, renal vein
What can be the reasons of leg oedema?
Hypoproteinaemic state Liver cirrhosis Right sided heart failure Venous hypertension Lipodermatosclerosis Inferior vena cave blockage Venous blockage - pelvic tumour
As venous blood is drained from the kidney which path does it follow?
From the capillaries of the kidney, deoxygenated blood flows through the renal vein. The renal vein empties directly into the inferior vena cava which carries the blood back to the heart.
The aqueous humor of the eye is reabsorbed into venous blood through the?
The aqueous humor of the eye is reabsorbed into venous blood through the trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal. This process helps maintain the appropriate pressure within the eye, known as intraocular pressure. Imbalance in the production and drainage of aqueous humor can lead to conditions like glaucoma.
Where does the csf drain from subarachnoid space?
In the brain we have small protrusions of the arachnoid and subarachnoid space into the venous system. These protrusions are called arachnoid villi or arachnoid granulations and they allow for drainage of CSF into the venous system. Another source of CSF drainage is the lymphatic system.
What causes venous ulcer?
Venous ulcer are caused by venous insufficiency (improper functioning of venous valves).
