Segments of the kidney: the anatomical basis for nephrosegmentectomy

  • Chapter
Basic, Clinical, and Surgical Nephrology

Part of the book series: Developments in Nephrology ((DINE,volume 8))

Abstract

The principles of construction of the human body, common to mammals and vertebrates, include general bilateral symmetry (or zygomorphism), metamerism, pachymerism (or tubulation), and stratification [1]. In addition to these, it is recognized that the body is made up of (a) cells or biological units; (b) supracellular functional units, such as nephrons and osteons; (c) tissues; (d) organs; and (e) systems or apparatuses.
