Lymph vessels are scarce or lacking in the renal inner medulla, raising the question of
whether plasma proteins entering the medullary interstitium are removed by diffusion
through the interstitium to lymphatics in the outer medulla or cortex, or by convection into the
vasa recta.
Abstract
1. Lymph vessels are scarce or lacking in the renal inner medulla, raising the question of whether plasma proteins entering the medullary interstitium are removed by diffusion through the interstitium to lymphatics in the outer medulla or cortex, or by convection into the vasa recta.
