Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In juxtamedullary nephrons, the peritubular capillary network forms a network around the loop of Henle and is called the vasa recta. Peritubular capillaries join together and form the renal veins and return the filtered blood with less waste materials to the venous system.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vasa recta of the kidney, (vasa recta renis) are the straight arterioles, and the straight venules of the kidney, – a series of blood vessels in the blood supply of the kidney that enter the medulla as the straight arterioles, and leave the medulla to ascend to the cortex as the straight venules.
