renal efferent arteriole in dogs

The blood vessels that convey blood from the glomerulocapillary network to the capillary bed of the proximal convoluted tubule. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the renal efferent arteriole is

The blood vessels that convey blood from the glomerulocapillary network to the capillary bed of the proximal convoluted tubule. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the renal efferent arteriole is

It sits in the abdomen and trunk, within the cardiovascular and urinary systems. Only the region is known. The position shown is somewhere plausible inside it and nothing more.

What the renal efferent arteriole connects to

The atlas records 7 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of renal corpuscle.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the renal efferent arteriole. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as arteriola glomerularis efferens renis, efferent arteriole, efferent glomerular arteriole, efferent glomerular arteriole of kidney, kidney efferent arteriole and arteriola glomerularis efferens capsulae renalis. Searching any of those names reaches this page.
