horizontal passage within the obturator fascia
40
pudendal canal begins and end
Begins at the border of t ischio-anal fossa and runs from the lesser sciatic notch to the posterior edge of the perineal membrane
41
pudendal canal contains
the internal pudendal artery, vein and nerve enter with the nerve to the obturator internus
42
obturator internus function and innervation
nerve to obturator internus. Laterally rotates hip joint, assists in holding head of femur in acetabulum.
43
piriformis function and innervation
laterally rotates hip joint, abducts head of hip joint, assists in holding femur head. Anterior rami of S1 and S2.
44
menopause anatomical effects
ovaries shrink in size, contain very few follicles. Uterus and the breasts decrease in size. The vaginal mucosa becomes atrophic and dry
45
mammary glands are attached to the dermis of the overlying skin by
suspensory ligaments
46
blood supply of the breasts
medial mammary branches of perforating branches originating from the subclavian artery. Mammary branches of lateral thoracic and thoraco-acromial arteries which are branches of axillary artery and the posterior intercostal arteries.
47
lymphatic drainage of the breast
most lymph, especially from the lateral quadrant drains to the axillary lymph
48
most lymph drains to which node in the breast?
pectoral nodes
49
medial breast quadrant lymphatic drain to
parasternal lymph nodes or to the opposite breast.
50
inferior breast quadrant lymphatic pass to
abdominal lymph nodes
51
female lumbar lymph nodes drain
gonads, common iliac nodes (ovary, uterine tube)
52
inferior mesenteric lymph nodes drain
superiormost rectum, sigmoid colon, descending colon, pararectal nodes
53
male lumbar lymph nodes drain
urethra, testis, epididymis
54
female internal iliac lymph nodes drain
inferior pelvic structures, deep perineal structures, sacral nodes
55
male internal iliac lymph nodes drain
external and iliac lymph nodes
56
external iliac lymph nodes drain
inferior pelvic structures, deep perineal structures, sacral nodes
57
superficial inguinal lymph nodes drain in men
lower limb superficial drainage of inferior lateral quadrant of trunk including abdominal wall inferior to umbilicus, gluteal region, superficial perineal structures
58
superficial inguinal lymph nodes in female drain too
lower limb superficial drainage of inferior lateral quadrant of trunk, including anterior abdominal wall inferior to umbilicus, gluteal region, superficial perineal structures
59

glans penis, superficial inguinal nodes, distal spongey urethra
62
sacral lymph nodes drain in men
posterior inferior pelvic structures, inferior rectum
63
pararectal lymph nodes drain
superior rectum
64
sympathetic supply of the anus is via the
from the lumbar spinal cord conveyed via the lumbar splanchnic nerves and the hypogastric pelvic plexus and through the periarterial plexuses
65
parasympathetic supply of the anus is supplies via the
from S2-S4 spinal cord level passing via the pelvic splanchnic S2-S4 and inferior hypogastric plexuses to the rectal pelvis
66
layers of the spermatic cord
external spermatic fascia, cremaster muscle and fascia, internal spermatic fascia.
67
anatomy of the shaft of the penis is
the paired erectile cavernous tissue corpora cavernosa and the single corpus spongiosum. Each body is surrounded by a fibrous tunica albuginea. The corpora cavernosa are fused with each other in the median plane posteriorly except when they separate to form the crura of the penis
68
root of the penis consists of
root of the penis consists of crura, bulb and ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus muscles.
69
glans of the penis is formed by the
corpus spongiosum
70
parasympathetic influence of the penis
parasympathetic stimulation by the cavernous nerves closes the arteriovenous anastomoses. Simultaneously the smooth muscle in the fibrous trabeculae is inhibited. Blood fills the sinuses of the corpora of the penis. The bulbospongiosus and the ischiocavernosus reflexively contracts by compressing the veins of the corpora cavernosa. As the corpus muscles become engorged with blood, the erectile bodies become rigid. S2-S4
71
sympathetic influence on the penis
emission of semen L1-L2
72
labia majora is
prominent folds of skin around the pudendal cleft. Indirectly provides protection for the urethral and vaginal orifices. Largely filled with subcutaneous fat containing smooth muscle and the termination of the round ligament of the uterus.
73
labia minora is
– folds of fat free hairless skin. They have a spongey connective tissue containing erectile tissue.
74
vestibule is the
space surrounded by the labia minora. Contains the opening of the urethra, vagina and ducts of the greater and lesser vestibular glands.
75
bulbs of the vestibule is the
paired masses of elongated erectile tissue that lie along the sides of the vaginal orifice under cover of the bulbospongiosus muscles
76
vestibular glands is the
located on each side of the vestibule, both are partially surrounded by the bulbospongiosus muscle. These glands secrete mucous into the vestibule during sexual arousal.
77
parasympathetic stimulation of the female sexual function
produces increased vaginal secretion, erection of clitoris , and engorgement of erectile tissue in the bulbs of the vestibule.
