What is the definition of Renal Medulla?

I need to know this and what the definition of Bladder Cancer Cystitis.

The renal medulla is the innermost part of the kidney. The renal medulla is split up into a number of sections, known as the 'renal pyramids'. Blood enters into the kidney via the renal artery, which then splits up to form the arcuate arterioles.

Bladder Cancer Cystitis is Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a condition that results in recurring discomfort or pain in the bladder and the surrounding pelvic region. The symptoms vary from case to case and even in the same individual. People may experience mild discomfort, pressure, tenderness, or intense pain in the bladder and pelvic area. Symptoms may include an urgent need to urinate (urgency), a frequent need to urinate (frequency), or a combination of these symptoms. Pain may change in intensity as the bladder fills with urine or as it empties.

Renal medulla is The inner part of the substance of the kidney, composed chiefly of collecting tubule elements, loops of Henle, and vasa recta, organized grossly into pyramids.

Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder condition that can cause pain and other symptoms. People with IC have an inflamed or irritated bladder wall. This inflammation can lead to:

scarring and stiffening of the bladder;

less bladder capacity (the bladder is able to hold less urine);

pinpoint bleeding in the bladder lining. In rare cases, ulcers form in the bladder lining.

Of the more than 700,000 Americans estimated to have IC, about 90 percent are women. Severe cases of IC can be very disabling.

It's a kidney condition. You can get lots of medical info at www.webmd.com

Renal Medulla

The renal medulla is the innermost part of the kidney. The renal medulla is split up into a number of sections, known as the renal pyramids. Blood enters into the kidney via the renal artery, which then splits up to form the arcuate arterioles. The arcuate arterioles each in turn branch into interlobar arterioles, which finally reach the glomeruli. At the glomerulus the blood reaches a highly disfavourable pressure gradient and a large exchange surface area, which forces a lot of the blood out of the vessel into the renal tubules. Flow continues through the renal tubules, including the proximal tubule, the Loop of Henle, and finally leaves the kidney by means of the collecting duct, leading to the
renal urethra.

BLADDER CANCER

Bladder cancer refers to any of several types of malignant vagina growths of the urinary bladder. It is a disease in which abnormal cells multiply without control in the bladder. The bladder is a hollow, muscular organ that stores urine; it is located in the lower abdomen. The most common type of bladder cancer begins in cells lining the inside of the bladder (epithelial cells) and is called transitional cell carcinoma (TCC).

The greatest risk factor for bladder cancer is a genetic predisposition; it is also associated with smoking and occupational exposure to aniline-based dyes (such as in textile factories), as well as with petrol and other chemicals.

Cystitis is the inflammation of the bladder. The condition primarily affects women, but can affect either sex and all age groups.
