situacion anatómica (normal) in normal position Explanation: It's simply saying that the kidneys are where they should be ... in the correct location or position. See for example: http://www.cari.org.au/ARCHIVE/TRANS_living_archive/Part_3-1... (under "Background") Also: "http://www.cari.org.au/ARCHIVE/TRANS_living_archive/Part_3-1... . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 44 mins (2013-11-04 23:30:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Ooops ... sorry ... I don't think that second link works. See: "Abdominal ultrasound (12/23/2004) showed kidneys in normal position with no ... " "Before deciding to operate on kidneys in normal position we must consider : ..." "Usually one of the kidneys is ectopic and other in normal position." "Each baby had two kidneys in normal position with the bladders laterally placed. Each bladder received one ureter from each twin." It could also be translated as "normally situated kidneys" which is really the same idea ("The specificity of NMR was superior to both ultrasound and IVU in the diagnosis of parenchymal disease in normally situated kidneys") of the kidneys being in their correct position, not displaced, but I find many more hits for "in normal position". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2013-11-05 02:33:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And here is one Spanish text that explains/confirms the meaning: "Autotrasplantación renal (ATR) es la reimplantación en el propio individuo de un riñón previamente extirpado. Si se coloca en situación anatómica, es decir, donde habitualmente está, el ATR será ortotópico; si, por el contrario, se reinjerta en otra situación, habitualmente en la fosa ilíaca homolateral, hablaremos de ATR heterotópico." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2013-11-05 03:16:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- in normal anatomic position After looking at this some more, I think a straight direct translation of the Spanish is correct, and I'll make this my primary suggestion. See for example: "We suggest that management of grade V renal injuries to ectopic pelvic kidneys can be treated similarly to that of kidneys in normal anatomic position." "the disease can deviate the ureters medially away from their normal anatomic position " (applies not just to kidneys) "Abdominal ultrasonography shows no kidneys in the normal anatomic position and a single U-shaped renal mass with two collecting systems near the aortic bifurcation." "in normal position" is still correct, but this version is closer to the language of the source. |

Both kidneys are anatomically normal. Explanation: Sugestion -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2013-11-05 09:02:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I am not a radiologist, but as I am a doctor we have to attend some meetings at the radiology department weekly and they use this expression all the time when they are writing their reports. By saying so, they are not just saying that the organ is where it should be, but also that its anatomy is preserved, e.g: in your report the kidneys haven't got any malformation such as horseshoe kidneys and no abnormalities was seen by the examiner (cysts, stones, hyper/hypotrophy etc). Please see the example and references below: "they typically present with flank pain and renal colic similar to that experienced with stones in anatomically normal kidneys because the innervation of horseshoe kidneys is not anomalous" http://www.physicians-academy.com/Upload/a459fc98-1c56-49f2-... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10530903 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3133515/ http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/124/21/2355.full I hope it might help you. Good luck! :) |
