The cross-sectional diagram depicts a kidney with marked hydronephrosis: thinning of renal parenchyma, ballooning of minor and major calyces, and a massively dilated renal pelvis (RP) continuous with an enlarged ureter (hydroureter). As an organ within the urinary tract (UT), the kidney filters blood and produces urine; obstruction of urine outflow leads to pressure-induced dilation and parenchymal atrophy. The hierarchy shown includes calyces and the RP within the kidney, relevant to anatomy, pathology, urology, and nephrology.
