What is the Scrotum derived from?
Skin of Abdominal Wall
Superficial fascia of Abdominal wall
What are the contents of the scrotum
Testes
Epididymis
Distal portion of spermatic cord
Describe the skin of the Scrotum
- Thin
- Pigmented
- Has a midline scrotal raphe
- Lined on the inside by the Dartos Muscle which causes rugose
What are the connective tissue layers of the scrotum
From superficial to deep:
- Skin
- Dartos Muscle
- Tunics of spermatic cord:
- –Ext. Spermatic Fascia
- –Cremasteric Muscle and Fascia
- –Int. Spermatic Fascia
ALL THESE LAYERS FUSE AND LIE SUPERFICIAL TO TUNICA VAGINALIS
What is the structure of the Tunica Vaginalis
Has two layers:
- Visceral layer: covers the testis
- Parietal layer: covers the testis and epididymis
What is the blood supply of the Scrotum
Supplied and drained by:
–External pudendal arteries and veins
What is the lymphatic drainage of the scrotum
Superficial inguinal nodes
What is the innervation of the scrotum
Anterior:
- Ilioinguinal N.
- Genital br. of Genitofemoral N.
Posteroir:
- Posterior Scrotal N.
- Perineal Branches (of the posterior femoral cutaneous N)

Erectile bodies:
- Paired Corpora Cavernosa
- Corpus Spongiosum
Surrounded by deep fascia (Buck’s fascia)
What is the blood supply of the penis
Internal Pudendal Arteries:
- Dorsal arteries of penis
- Deep arteries
- Artery of bulb of penis
Skin of penis supplied by the external pudendal arteries
What is the lymphatic drainage of the penis?
