Fields- anatomy of male pelvis and perineum Flashcards
(129 cards)
3 bones of pelvis
pubis
ischium
ilium
covered by the pectineal ligament and crossed by the femoral v, a, n, medial to lateral
pectineal line
how nerves and arteries leave the pelvis and enter the perineum
greater and lesser sciatic foramen
a full bladder will extend into ____ pelvis
false
b/t the iliopectineal line and the pelvic diaphragm
true pelvis
prevents organs from spilling out to the feet
pelvic diaphragm
posterior boundary of true pelvis
sacrum, coccyx, piriformis m.
floor of the true pelvis
pelvic diaphragm
anterior boundary of true pelvis
pubic bone
lateral boundary of true pelvis
obturator internus m
main innervation of the pelvic diaphragm
somatic innervation (skeletal muscle)
innervation of coccygeus/ischiococcygeus of pelvic diaphragm
S4-S5 (somatic)
innervation of levator ani of pelvic diaphragm
S3-S4 (somatic)
supports male pelvic organs and helps prevent urinary and fecal incontinence
pelvic diaphragm
strengthened by Kegel exercise to prevent urinary and fecal incontinence
Levator Ani
fascia of the obturator internus muscle from which the iliococcygeus m. takes its origin
Arcus Tendineous
3 parts of pubococcygeus muscle
puboprostate
puborectalis
pubococcygeus
connects to ischial spine
coccygeus muscle
The physician’s diagnosis is injury to the nerves supplying the pelvic diaphragm. What are the muscles and their innervation?
Levator Ani: S3, S4
Coccygeus: S4, S5
transports sperm from testis to penis
vas deferens
Where the duct of the seminal vesicle joins the vas dererens.
It empties into the prostate gland
Ejaculatory Duct
passes behind the ureters
vas deferens
where sperm is stored until smooth m. contractions force it out
ampulla (vas deferens)
will secrete bicarbonate to increase the pH so sperm can still function in acidic environment of vagina
prostate gland
