| Abstract | In this work we have tested the variations of the calyxes pelvic kidney system and have done so on three-dimensional preparations of the calyxes-pelvic kidney system, which we obtained through injections and corrosive methods. Fifteen preparation pairs (30 kidneys), taken from adult cadavers, have been anatomically stuffed and injected with a solution of plastic matter after which they were dissolved in nitric acid in order to get corrosive preparations of the calyxes-pelvic kidney system. Based on the angle under which the calyx inferior instilled into renal pelvis, two types of calyxes-pelvic kidney systems have been defined. Type I has been defined as a shape where the angle between the longitudinal axis of large lower calyx and the longitudinal axis of renal pelvis is higher than 90, is marked as the descendant shape and has been found in the amount of 33,3%. Type II has been defined as a shape where the same angle is bellow 90, is marked as the ascendant shape and has been found in the amount of 66,7%. Based on the measurement of large renal calyxes' dimensions, it has been noted that a positive correlation between the calibres of upper renal calyxes on the right and on the left side (r = 0,68; p < 0,05) had existed. At the same time the calibre of middle renal calyxes and lower renal calyxes on the right side have not shown a statistically relevant correlation with the one on the left side (r = 0,19; p < 0,05). The ascendant shape, at average, has wider infundibula (large lower calyx) and longer upper large calyx from those in the descendant shape. The length of infundibula in the ascendant and descendant shape has shown almost equal average values. These parameters can be a good indicator in determining calculosis and stasis in the lower calyxes of the kidney. |
