Scope note: Túbulos rectos que comienzan en la parte radiada de la corteza renal donde reciben las terminaciones curvadas de los túbulos contorneados distales. En la médula los túbulos colectores de cada pirámide convergen para unirse en un túbulo central (conducto de Bellini) el cual se abre en el ápice de la papila.
