About Human kidneys:

• The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs that are located on either side of your spine, behind your abdomen, and below your ribs.
• Each kidney measures approximately 4 to 5 inches in length or the size of a huge fist.
• In vertebrates, the kidneys are two reddish-brown, bean-shaped organs.
• Blood enters them through the paired renal arteries, and it leaves through the paired renal veins.
• A ureter, a tube that transports expelled urine to the bladder, is connected to each kidney.
• The renal hilum, which is a hollow on the concave border, is where the renal artery enters the kidney, and the renal vein and ureter exit.
• The perirenal fat, renal fascia, and pararenal fat surround the renal capsule, a thick fibrous tissue that surrounds the kidney.
• The peritoneum covers the tissues' anterior (front) surface, and the transversalis fascia covers their posterior (back) surface.
