Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 3AYK
Later that same day, the surgeon performs a procedure on Ms. Norman’s right kidney. She makes the incision in the right posterior lumbar region.

When injecting the head, the term that suggests the relationship to the internal body organs would be:
a. proximal
b. distal
c. visceral
d. periheral
Why, when a surgeon is operating on the kidney, is the surgery performed from the side/posterior part of the abdomen and not through the anterior abdominal wall?
Ken James comes to the physician’s office with a complaint of severe back pain. The pain is located on the right side lateral to vertebrae and superior to the buttocks. The physician orders some tests to rule out the diagnosis of kidney stones. There is more than one procedure to remove kidney stones. Which procedure do you think will be scheduled for Ken?
