Etymology of SUPRARENE

The word "suprarenal" or "suprarenal gland" is a term used in anatomy and medicine to refer to the adrenal glands, which are located above (supra-) the kidneys (renes). The term is derived from the Latin words "supra", meaning "above", and "renes", meaning "kidneys". These glands were given this name because of their anatomical position above the kidneys. Over time, "suprarenal" has been shortened to "suprarene" in some instances.
