Unique Features of Anatomy, Histology, and Ultrastructure, Kidney, Mouse

  • Chapter
Book cover Urinary System

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

The anatomy of the mammalian kidney has been reviewed by Möllendorff (1929, 1930), Latta et al. (1967), and Rouiller (1969). The gross anatomy of the mouse kidney has been described by several authors, including Fekete (1941), Dunn (1949), Hummel et al. (1966), and Kriz and Koepsell (1974), as being similar in many respects to the kidneys of other mammals.
