👉 Unmedullated is a medical concept that refers to a type of kidney that is not fully formed, meaning it contains only one layer of cells. This can occur in many different types of kidneys, but in some cases, it may be more common in the lower part of the kidney called the glomerulus. Unmedullated kidneys are typically found in the kidneys located in the abdominal cavity and are associated with certain health conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
