    The ureters are thin muscular tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Each ureter is around 25 cm long and 3 mm in diameter. The ureters have 3 parts - a pelvic part at the kidney, an abdominal part through the abdomen, and a pelvic part through the pelvis. The ureter carries urine through peristaltic contractions, entering the bladder at the trigone to prevent backflow of urine into the ureters.

    URETER

    The ureters are a pair of narrow,thick walled muscular


    tubes which convey urine from kidneys to the urinary
    bladder
    Lie deep to peritoneum,closely applied to the
    posterior abdominal wall in the upper part,and to the
    lateral pelvic part in the lower part
    DIMENSIONS
    Length-25 cm
    Diameter-3mm

    COURSE
    The ureter begins within the renal
    sinus as renal pelvis
    The ureter passes downwards and
    slightly medially on the psoas
    muscle
    enters the pelvis by crossing in
    front of termination of common
    iliac artery
    After entering the pelvis it reaches
    the base of bladder
    It enters bladder wall obliquely and
    open into lateral angle of trigone

    3 parts:
    PELVIS
    ABDOMINAL
    PELVIC

    PELVIS
    Funel shaped
    dilatation at
    upper part
    Formed by union
    of major
    calyces
    Passes
    downwards
    and medially
    through hilum
    Capacity 5 to 7
    ml

    Abdominal part
    Passes downwards
    and medially by
    passing beneath
    the peritoneum
    Enters pelvic cavity
    by crossing
    termination of
    common iliac
    artery

    Posterior Relations
    Psoas major &
    fascia
    Genitofemoral
    nerve

    process

    Anterior relations
    Rt side
    Parietal peritoneum
    Rt gonadal vessels

    duedenum
    Rt colic & Ileocolic

    Pelvic part
    First part
    downwards beneath
    peritoneum along
    greater sciatic
    notch & reaches
    ischial spine

    Second or
    oblique part then forward and
    medially, through
    extra peritoneal
    tissue reaches
    superolateral
    angle of bladder
    5cm from
    opposite ureter

    Third part or
    Intravesical part
    Pierces musculature
    of bladder,
    undergoes oblique
    course downwards
    and medially thro
    bladder and opens
    into interior of
    bladder

    NORMAL
    CONSTRICTIONS
    (1) At
    pelviureteral
    junction
    (2) at brim of
    lesser pelvis
    (3) at passage
    through
    bladderwall

    Factors preventing reflux of


    urine
    Oblique direction of intravesical part
    of ureter
    Trigonal muscle which by contraction
    maintains the obliquity of ureter
    Peristalsis of ureteral muscles at 2 to
    5 times per minute. Urine is collected
    in bladder in jets, not continually

    BLOOD SUPPLY
    Upper part renal artery
    Middle part-aorta
    Pelvic part-vesical,middle rectal or uterine
    vessels
    NERVE SUPPLY

    Parasympathetic- S2-S4
