Q

Where does the Ejaculatory ducts open into?

A

Prostatic urethra

21
Q

What is a Vesectomy?

A

Part of the DD is removed and ends tied so sperm is no longer conveyed

22
Q

What happens to the Sperm after a Vesectomy?

A

Sperm degenerates within epididymas

23
Q

What are the Seminal Vesicles?

A

Elongated paired structure between bladder and rectum

24
Q

What does the Seminal Vesicle secrete?

A

Alkaline fructose rich fluid as energy source for sperm

25
Q

Where does the Seminal vesicle join in the Sperm ejaculation process?

A

Joins DD to form paired Ejac ducts

26
Q

Describe the Prostate?

A

Firm walnut sized accessory gland below neck of bladder

27
Q

What runs through the Prostate?

A

Part of male urethra

28
Q

What does the Prostate produce?

A

Milky fluid that aids sperm motility

29
Q

Where does the Ejac ducts open into the Prostate?

A

Seminal Colliculus - elevated portion of urethral crest

30
Q

What is the Prostate covered by?

A

Fibrous capsule incorporating prostatic plexuses of veins and nerves

31
Q

What is surrounding the Prostate?

Neck of the Bladder

33
Q

What is the Prostate apex associated with?

A

External urethral spincter

34
Q

How does the Prostate receive Arterial Supply?

A

Inferior Vesical Artery

35
Q

How do you Palpate the prostate gland and what do you look for?

A

Insert lubricated finger into rectum, palpate through anterior rectal wall - gland should feel smooth and rubbery walnut sized

36
Q

What Symptons can Cause Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?

A

Lower UT - Need to wee but cant go - Risk of this increases with age

37
Q

How would you Remove some of the Hyperplasia?

A

Through Transurethal resection of prostate TURP through head of penis

38
Q

Describe Cancer of the Prostate?

A

Slow-growing may metastize to vertebral column and pelvis via Lymph system

39
