Reference information:
Le transport des urines depuis les calices jusqu’à la vessie met en jeu des ondes de péristaltisme, c’est-à-dire la contraction intermittente des fibres musculaires lisses, segmentaire et orientée de proximal en distal, qui fait ramper l’uretère (reptation) et cheminer des bolus d’urine.
