Urinary System Tissue
- Kidney (KP): Single kidney without vascularity. (1/2” of renal artery attached.)
- Renal Arteries (RA): Right and left individual renal arteries.
- Renal Arteries with Abdominal Aorta (RAAA): Right and left renal arteries attached to the abdominal aorta which is approximately 2” in harvested length. All are skeletonized.
- Renal Veins with Vena Cava (RVVC): Right and left renal veins attached to 2” of harvested length of the vena cava. All are skeletonized.
- Renal Urinary Block (RUB): Right and left kidneys, renal arteries, and veins attached to the aorta and vena cava, urethra, urinary bladder, and ureters. All tissues are in an intact tissue block.
- Renal Urinary Block without the Venous System (RUBNV): Right and left kidneys with each renal artery attached to the abdominal aorta, urethra, urinary bladder, and ureters. All tissues are in an intact tissue block.
- Renal Vascular Complex (RVC): Right and left kidneys with their renal arteries attached to the abdominal aorta and their renal veins attached to the vena cava. Dissected/skeletonized.
- Renal Vascular Complex - Not dissected (RVCND): Right and left kidneys with their renal arteries attached to the abdominal aorta and their renal veins attached to the vena cava. This block is not dissected/skeletonized.
- Renal Artery Block - Dissected and packed in adipose (RABDA): Right and left kidneys attached to the abdominal aorta with both renal arteries. This block is dissected/skeletonized and then wrapped in adipose to retain moisture to the tissues.
- Ureters (URET): Both ureters harvested in full length (9”).
- Urinary Bladder (UB): The bladder itself without any attachments.
- Urinary Bladder Block (UBT): This tissue block includes the urinary bladder, both ureters, urethra, and optional prostate. Specify the sex of the animal.
- Urinary Bladder with Prostate (UBP): The urinary bladder with urethra and prostate.
- Urine (URI): This fluid is collected as a standard of 500 ml. Any amount can be specified. Urine is harvested from males.
