24
Q

What is the perineum?

A

The body wall that closes the pelvic cavity caudally (pelvic outlet)

25
Q

What does the perineum surround?

A

anal and urogenital canals

26
Q

The perineum has two boundaries: superficial and deep. True or false?

A

True

27
Q

Where are the superficial boundaries of the perineum located?

A

on the surface of the animal

28
Q

What are the dorsal, lateral, and ventral boundaries of the superficial perineum?

A

dorsal: base of the tail (coccygeus and levator m.)
lateral: semimembranous m.
ventral: scrotum or udder

29
Q

What are the dorsal, lateral, and ventral boundaries of the deep perineum?

A

dorsal: sacrum and first few caudal vertebrae
lateral: sacrosciatic ligament
ventral: floor of the bony pelvis

30
Q

What is the perineal body?

A

deep portion of perineum; muscular and fascial layers forming a midline mass between anal and urogential canals

31
Q

Where is the perineal body located in males and females?

A

males: between anus and origin of the body of the penis
females: between anus and dorsal commissure of vulva

32
Q

What is the common cavity?

A

Created during foaling as a result of the laceration of the perineal body

33
Q

How are perineal lacerations elevaluated?

A

3 grades

34
Q

Why would a common cavity require surgical repair?

A

Due to fecal contamination of the genital tract

35
Q

What is the perineal region?

A

the superficial projection of perineum on the skin; it is ONLY SKIN DEEP

36
Q

Describe the location of the perineal region?

A

Extends from root of tail between the semimembranosus muscles, ventrally to the base of the udder or scrotum
