Abstract: A study was conducted on the kidneys of six Barbari goats of either sex between the ages of 1.5 and 2 years. After the histological examination of the kidneys, micrometry was done. Micrometry of renal corpuscles showed that the juxtamedullary renal corpuscles were larger than the cortical corpuscles. The average diameter of the proximal convoluted tubule was 45.17±1.83 microns, and the average diameter of the distal convoluted tubule was 38.42±1.27 microns. Similarly, the average diameters of the thin and thick segments of Henle’s loop are 16.50±0.57 and 30.65±1.38 microns, respectively. The average diameter of distal convoluted tubules was 38.42±1.27 microns.
