Larry Y1 - 2022 N1 - T2 - Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 21e AB - The renal circulation is complex and is characterized by a highly perfused arteriolar network, reaching cortical glomerular structures adjacent to lower-flow vasa recta that descend into medullary segments. Disorders of the larger vessels, including renal artery stenosis and atheroembolic disease, are discussed elsewhere (Chap. 278). This chapter examines primary disorders of the renal microvessels, many of which are associated with thrombosis and hemolysis.
