Published 01/10/2024 The renal system starts developing during {{c1::week 4}} of intrauterine life.
Published 01/10/2024 The {{c1::intermediate mesoderm}} on either side of the embryo condenses to form the {{c2::urogenital ridge}}
Published 01/10/2024 Three parts of the mesoderm
Published 01/10/2024 What structures arise from the urogentiary ridge?
Published 01/10/2024 The {{c1::nephrogenic cord::part of urogenital ridge}} develops into the {{c2::urinary structures}}
Published 01/10/2024 What are the three sets of structure emerging from the nephrogenic cord?
Published 01/10/2024 What is the pronephros?
Published 01/10/2024 Mesonephros is made of the {{c1::mesonephric duct }}and {{c1::mesonephric tubules}}. 
Published 01/10/2024 Mesonephric duct reaches all the way to the {{c1::cloaca}} causing the {{c1::urinary}} and {{c1::digestive}} systems to share an exit. 
Published 01/10/2024 What structure does the mesonephric tubules form? What is its function?
Published 01/10/2024 Intermediate mesoderm near the {{c1::mesonephric duct}} differentiates into {{c2::metanephric blastema (mesoderm)}}.
Published 01/10/2024 The {{c1::metanephric mesoderm }} produces growth factors that travel to the mesonephric duct sprouting the {{c1::ureteric bud,}} conneā€¦
Published 01/10/2024 The ureteric stalk lengthens and forms the {{c1::ureter}} around week 6.
Published 01/10/2024 Ureteric bud differentiation and division
Published 01/10/2024 Cells in the collecting tubules signal the {{c1::metanephric mesoderm}} to form {{c2::metanephric vesicles.}}
Published 01/10/2024 Formation of the nephron process
Published 01/10/2024 Initially, the kidneys are nourished by {{c1::internal iliac arteries }}
Published 01/10/2024 The {{c1::urorectal septum}} splits the cloaca into a {{c2::posterior anal canal }} and an {{c2::anterior urogenital sinus }}
Published 01/10/2024 The top portion of the urogenital sinus stretches out to form the {{c1::primitive bladder}}
Published 01/10/2024 The middle portion of the urogenital sinus forms the {{c1::urethra }}
Published 01/10/2024 The bottom portion of the urogenital sinus forms either {{c1::the clitoris or the penis}}.
Published 01/10/2024 What is the vesical trigone?
Published 01/10/2024 What is oligohydramnios?
Published 01/10/2024 Components of Potter Sequence
Published 01/10/2024 Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD)
Published 01/10/2024 Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD)
Published 01/10/2024 Medullary sponge disease 
Published 01/10/2024 Multicystic dysplastic kidney disease 
Published 01/10/2024 Medullary cystic kidney disease (autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease)
Published 01/10/2024 Renal agenesis
Published 01/10/2024 Posterior urethral valves
Published 01/10/2024 Horseshoe kidney
