HN: The Perineal Body is an irregular fibromuscular mass in the midline between the Anal Canal and the Perineal Membrane, it contains Collagenous and Elastic Fibers and is the attachment point for the Bulbospongiosus M, External Anal Sphincter M., Superficial Transverse Perineal M. and Deep Transverse Perineal M. It is sometimes classified as a central tendon of the Pelvic and Urogenital Diaphragms.

(2)
The Pelvic Diaphragm is made up of four muscles: the three Levator Ani Ms. (Puborectalis M., Pubococcygeus M., and Iliococcygeus M.) and the Coccygeus M. The Superficial Fascia of the Pelvic Diaphragm also contains small slips of muscle that insert onto the Urinary Bladder, those muscles are the Pubovesicalis M. from the Pubis to the Urinary Bladder and the Rectovesicalis M. from the Rectum to the Urinary Bladder.

Ani)
O: Posterior aspect of the Pubic Body

pubococcygeus M. produce what? extend where? action? muscles include?
The Pubococcygeus M. produces several small slips of muscle that extend to nearby structures, all sharing similar action and innervation as the Pubococcygeus M. These muscles include the Levator pubococcygeus M. (♂), the Pubovaginalis M. (♀) and the Puboperinealis M. and Puboanalis M. in both.
