Abstract: This study's objective was to investigate the kidney's anatomy and histologystructure in healthy adults. cow in middle of Iraq. The study was performed on ten adult healthy cow (Bos taurus) about (392-485) kg where they were obtained from the local abattoirs of middle of Iraq in Babylon, Karbala and najaf provinces. The anatomical study included the study of the position of the kidney, its relation with the neighboring organs in the body, description of the morphology of the kidney, measurement of its size, weight, diameters which provide that kidney of adult healthy cow were large in size, hard, reddish-brown, bean-shaped retroperitoneal organ situated in the upper abdomen's posterior area and Compared to the left kidney. The right kidney weighed more and was larger. According to in a capsule made of reticular fibers and a thin layer of fine collagen. The kidney is divided into two regions: the inner region, known as the medulla, is made. upofrenal corpuscles, convoluted tubules, and cortical loops of Henle, whereas the outer region, referre to as the cortex, is mostly made up of straight tubules, collecting ducts, and a special capillary network known as the vasa recta. Depending on where they are located in the renal cortex, renal corpuscles can be classified as cortical, mid-cortical, or juxtamedullary. According to the current study Cows have the longest proximal convoluted tubules, having tall cuboidal epithelial tissue. lining them and a brush border. The distal convoluted tubules in cow kidneys are shorter and less common in sections than the proximal tubules, while the Helene loop is made up of thick and thin limbs that have a relatively larger percentage of short Henley loops and are particularly pronounced in the medulla. From the terminal portion of The collecting duct system, which is encircled by cuboidal epithelium, is connected to the distal tubule by a short segment. tubules continue. Eventually, the collecting duct is separated into two sections: the cortical and medullary collecting ducts.
