M1: Anatomy of Female Repro Flashcards
(120 cards)
Anterior to perineum
Pubic symphysis
Diamond shaped. Inferior to pelvic outlet. Pelvic diaphragm separates from pelvic cavity.
Perineum
Anterolateral to perineum
Inferior pubic rami & ischial rami
Lateral to perineum
Ischial tuberosity
Posterolateral to perineum
Sacrotuberous ligament
Inferior to perineum
Sacrum & coccyx
Fibro fatty cushion. Anterior and superior to the symphysis pubis(bony fibrocartilage). Divides & joins labia majora. Covered by hair, triangle-shaped.
Mons pubis
Sweat and sebaceous gland, few specialized apocrine glands. Round ligament attachment. Venous plexus, trauma then hematoma.
Labia majora
Homologue of labia majora
Scrotum
Pain felt at the vulva when the baby kicks may be due to what
Round ligament being hit
Force applied to the perineum as manifested by a lump on the area affected
Saddle Injury
Hematoma on the labia majora can also be caused by
Deep lacerations not properly repaired, breech and forceps delivery
Smaller and more delicate. No hair. Sebaceous glands and a few sweat glands. Richly vascular & many nerve endings. Divide the superior & inferior parts.
Labia minora
Superior to labia minora
Prepuce & Frenulum
Inferior to the labia minora
Fourchette
Homologue of labia minora
Penile urethra
Tested when an examiner cannot retract the vaginal orifice d/t hypoestrogenic state. Usually occurs in young age and post menopausal women, treated by estrogenic creams. Caused by infections that are not properly treated that heal to and fuse together.
Labial Agglutination
Vascular plexus(erectile tissue) central corpus with two crura (_________) inferior rami of the pubis. 1.5-2cm Highly developed nerve supply & extremely sensitive.
Clitoris. Corpora cavernosa.
Muscle cover of clitoris
Ischiocavernosus muscle
Muscle root of clitoris
Bulbospongiosus muscle
For assessment of ambiguous genitalia, you have to _______ the clitoris to look for a vaginal opening for sex confirmation.
Retract
Enclosed by labia majora. Urethra, vagina, paired bartholin & skenes glands. Lower part of the urogenital sinus. _______ position is Bartholins gland.
Vestibule. 5/7
Smooth and palpable upon palpation. It is usually treated by incision & drainage then suturing is done.
Bartholin’s cyst or abscess
Bouncy upon palpation
Imperforate hymen
