[Parameter changes in the kidneys, renal calices and pelvises in the course of involution based on computer tomography data].
AIM OF RESEARCH: To carry out the comparative analysis of parameters of kidneys and their pyelocaliceal complex in various stages of human ontogenesis. Computer tomograms of 110 persons at the age of 22 till 84 years have been studied. The volume of pyelocaliceal of kidneys increases up. In 1, 2 mature age the correlation of kidneys square to the square of nephritic cups and pelvis (renocortical index) is various. In involution and senile age, at reduction of parameters of kidneys the size of nephritic cups and kidneys pelvis increases up, which can be explained by extension of kidney pelvis, or with the difficulties in outflow of urine.
