Renal Fascia

The renal fascia , fascia renalis, represents part of the retroperitoneal fascia, at the lateral edge of the kidney is divided into two plates: the anterior, or preference, and posterior or posterior, laminae that surround the kidney along with the fatty capsule, and the adrenal gland located on the upper end of the kidney, Vessels and nerves. Medial to the kidney, the posterior fascia leaf extends over the surface of the vertebral bodies; The front leaf passes in front of the large vessels of the abdominal cavity: the inferior vena cava and the abdominal aorta into the anterior plate of the renal fascia of the opposite side. Towards the upper end of the kidney, both plates of the renal fascia merge; Down they do not unite and pass into the subperitoneal cellulose of the iliac fossa. The fat capsule is pierced by connective tissue strands that extend from the renal fascia to the fibrous capsule of the kidney.
On the anterior surface of the renal fascia is the perineum fat body, corpus adiposum pararenale.
