Thenotion is important as it shows that no exploration of the pelvis is possible by ANATOMY KIDNEY 643 by nephrotomy without incision of the pelvis, , without pyelotomy. Therenal artery reaches the hilum of the kidney at a higher level than the pelvisand here divides into three or four branches (Fig. 787), one of which passes overthe upper border of the pelvis and passes downwards on the posterior surface ofthe origin of the primary tubes (Fig. 788). This branch usually lies well insidethe sinus, but it may be situated along the opening of the sinus (the hilum).The renal artery or its branches as soon as they enter the hilum lie in contactwith the kidney parenchyma to which they give ofif branches. They are sepa-.
