The general structure of the kidney consists of a corticalsubstance (substantia corticalis) and a medullary substance(substantia medullaris), the latter arranged into conical masses (266) THE GENITOURINARY APPARATUS. 267 called renal pyramids, with their bases in the cortical their apices, the renal papillae {papillae renales), projectinginto the calices (calyces renales) of the pelvis within the sinusof the kidney (sinus renalis).
