The human body is a multi-system organ‚ with each system of the body involving different and smaller organs‚ muscles‚ and cells. While the ureter and esophagus are parts of two different body systems‚ the ureter active in the urinary system and the esophagus being activated in the digestive system. Through observations from Anatomy and Physiology Revealed‚ Saladin’s fourth edition of Human Anatomy‚ and in lab observations‚ the tubes were evaluated individually and together in order to compare them

Risk factors include preoperative urinary tract infection‚ entry into gastrointestinal organs‚ entry into kidney parenchyma or collecting system‚ and postoperative renal hematoma. Adequate irrigation‚ prophylactic antibiotics‚ and surgical drain placement minimize the risk of abscess formation (17). In the presence of risk factors for infection

distensible tube of limited length [5]. Their results showed that in flow with isolated boluses‚ the pressure/flow relation was determined by the active and passive properties of the tube undergoing peristalsis and not by the outlet. Dynamics of the upper urinary tract and the effect of variations of bladder pressure on pyeloureteral pressure/flow relations have been studied by many researchers [6] but none of them included wall properties in their studies.
