  1. REPRODUCTIVE VISCERA FEMALE

  2. Uterus • Ligamentous structures: Broad ligament: Mesometrium. Uterus to  lateral walls and pelvic floor. Includes: Mesovarium. Mesosalpinx. • Fig. 3.31.

  3. Uterus • Ligamentous structures: Round ligament: Lateral uterus  labia majora. Through inguinal canal. Transverse cervical ligament: Lateral pelvic wall  cervix and lateral fornix. Uterosacral ligament: Middle sacrum  cervix.

  4. Uterus • Walls (Fig. 3.26): Perimetrium: Outer; serous layer of peritoneum. Myometrium: Middle muscular layer; most vascular. Endometrium: Inner layer. Glandular. Most pronounced changes during menstrual cycle.

  5. Uterus • Uterine pouches: Vesiculouterine pouch: Between urinary bladder and uterus. Rectouterine pouch Between sigmoid colon, rectum, and uterus. • Refer to Table illustrations 3.3.

  6. Uterine Tubes • Infundibulum: Funnel shaped, distal end. Open to peritoneal cavity. Closest to ovaries. • Fimbriae: Finger-like projections from infundibulum.

  7. Uterine Tubes • Ampulla: Widest and longest part of infundibulum. • Isthmus: Thick-walled portion entering uterine horn. • Uterine part: Short segment within uterine wall.

  8. Ovaries • Characteristics: Small, almond shaped. Suspended by mesovarium. Produce and expel (ovulate) eggs follicles.

  9. Ovaries • Ligaments: Suspensory ligament of the ovary: Lateral pelvic wall  ovary. Ligament of the ovary: Uterus  ovary. Runs within mesovarium.

  10. Vagina • Musculomembranous tube. • From cervix to vestibule of vagina: Between labia minora. • Fornix: Short recess around cervix.

  11. External Genitalia • Mons pubis: Rounded fatty prominence anterior to pubic symphysis. • Pudendal cleft: Anterior slit between labia majora.

  12. External Genitalia • Labia majora: Prominent skin folds. Protect external urethral and vaginal orifices. Anterior commissure: Junction of right and left labia majora. Anterior to angle of clitoris. • Fig. 3.54

  13. External Genitalia • Labia minora: Fat-free, hairless skin folds. Enclosed within pudendal cleft and labia majora. Surround vestibule of vagina.

  14. External Genitalia • Clitoris: Glans. Angle: Anterior projection at junction of crura and body. Body. Crura: Associated with corresponding pubic rami: Right and left crura. Prepuce.

  15. External Genitalia • Vaginal vestibule: Between paired labia minora. Contains: Vaginal and urethral orifices. Vaginal orifice: Hymen. Bulbs of vestibule (Fig. 3.53): Paired, elongated erectile tissue structures. Surround vaginal orifice.

  16. External Genitalia • Vestibular glands: Greater: Paired glands posterior to bulbs of vestibule. Secrete mucous (lubrication). Lesser: Paired glands on either side of vaginal vestibule. Secrete mucous (lubrication).
