2. Which structures are found at the hilus of the sheep kidney?

Answer 1

The renal vein, renal hilus and the ureter are all found exiting through the hilus .The renal hilum is the entry and exit site for structures servicing the kidneys: vessels, nerves, lymphatics, and ureters. The medial-facing hila are tucked into the sweeping convex outline of the cortex. Emerging from the hilum is the renal pelvis, which is formed from the major and minor calyxes in the kidney.
