16
Q

Widest portion of the uterine tubes, longest portion, contains multiple mucosal folds and is typically the site of fertilization

A

Ampulla

17
Q

Funnel shape distal end of the uterine tube that opens into the peritoneal cavity thru the ostium; finger like projections aid in capturing the oocyte

A

Infundubulum

18
Q

Ligaments that are endopelvic fascial connections to support the vagina, cervix, and body of the uterus

A

Cervial ligaments

19
Q

Components of the cervical ligaments

A

Pubocervical, uterosacral, transverse cervical (strongest) ligaments

20
Q

From the medial pole of the ovary to the lateral wall of the uterus near the uterine horn

A

Ovarian ligament proper

21
Q

Contained with the broad ligament; extends from the lateral cornu to enter the deep inguinal ring and end in labium majorum, travels lateral to the inferior epigastric vessels

A

Round ligament of the uterus

22
Q

Double layer of peritoneum
extending from the uterus to the lateral pelvic wall and pelvic floor

A

Broad Ligament of the Uterus

23
Q

Attaches to the lateral surface of the uterus
and constitutes the majority of the broad ligament. It lies
inferior to the mesosalpinx and mesovarium

A

Mesometrium

24
Q

The part of the broad ligament enclosing the
uterine tube. Located along the superior edge of the broad
ligament

A

Mesosalpinx

25
Q

Posterior extension of the broad ligament that
suspends the ovary

A

Mesovarium

26
Q

Where do the ovarian veins drain into?

Pampiniform plexus forms the ovarian vein to the IVC or left renal vein

27
Q

Lymph drainage of the fundus and superior body

A

Lumbar lymph nodes

28
Q

Lymph drainage of the body

A

External Iliac lymph nodes

29
Q

Lymph drainage of the cervix

A

Internal iliac lymph nodes and sacral lymph nodes

30
Q

Innervation of inferior vagina

A

Somatic innervation, deep perineal nerve (branch of pudendal)

31
Q

Innervation of vagina and uterus

A
