21
Q

What is the perineum?

A

The diamond-shaped outlet of the pelvis located below the pelvic diaphragm

22
Q

Describe sensory and motor innervation of the perineum.

A

is provided by the pudendal nerve (S2, S3, S4) or the sacral plexus

23
Q

What is blood supply to the perineum from?

A

the internal pudendal artery

24
Q

The anal canal is is surrounded by what fat filled fossa?

A

ischioanal fossa

25
Q

The external anal sphincter of the anal canal is innervated by what nerve?

A

pudendal nerve

26
Q

The urogenital triangle is divided into what type of spaces?

A

superficial and deep perineal spaces (pouches)

27
Q

Where is the location of the superficial perineal pouch in relation to the structures of the male perineum?

A

between the perineal membrane of the urogenital diaphragm and the superficial perineal (Colles’) fascia

28
Q

The bulbourethral (Cowper) glands are located in the deep perineal or superficial perineal pouch?

A

the deep perineal

29
Q

The greater vestibular (Bartholin) glands are located in which perineal pouch in the female. Deep or superficial?

A

superficial

30
Q

Label the diagram.

A

Refer to diagram

31
Q

In the male, injury to the bulb on the penis may result in extravasation of urine from the urethra into which space?

A

superficial perineal space

32
Q

Because of injury to the bulb of the penis leading to extravasation of urine into the superficial perineal space, urine may ultimately pass into which structures?

A

the scrotum, into the penis, and onto the anterior abdominal wall in the plane deep to the Scarpa fascia

33
Q

The crura of the penis is continuous with what structure of the penis?

A

corpora cavernosa

34
Q

The bulb of the penis is continuous with what structure of the penis?

A

corpus spongiosum of the penis (contains urethra)

35
Q

What structures of the penis form the shaft of the penis?

A

corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosus

36
Q

The crura of the clitoris is continuous with which structure of the clitorus?

A

corpora cavernosa of the clitoris

37
Q

Bulbs of vestibule in the female perineum are separated from the vestibule by what structure?

A

labia minora

38
Q

T/F. Urethra and vagina empty into the vestibule.

A

True.

39
Q

T/F. Duct of the greater vestibular glands in the female perineum enters the vestibule?

A

True

40
Q

What nerve innervates the sk. muscles in the pelvic and urogenital diaphragms?

A

pudendal nerve (S2, S3, S4) ventral rami

41
Q

Label the diagram.

A

Refer to the diagram

42

43
Q

Where in the testis are spermatozoa produced?

A

seminiferous tubules

44
Q

Label the diagram.

A

Refer to diagram.

45
Q

What is the blood-testis barrier formed by? What does it protect?

A

tight junctions between Sertoli cells and protects primary spermatocytes and their progeny

46
Q

Where are the spermatogonia located in the seminiferous tubules?

adjacent to the basement membrane

47
Q

As the spermatogonia cells develop they move from what parts of the seminiferous tubule to what parts?

A

basal to luminal side of the tubule
