female repro system Flashcards
ovary relationships
posterior surface of broad ligament against lateral pelvic wall
inferolateral to uterine tube
anterior to ureter
ovarian mesentaries
mesovarium from broad ligament
suspensory ligament attached to upper pole of ovary
round ligament from lower end of ovary to lateral uterus (homologus to gubernaculum)
parts of uterine tubes
infundibulum- broad funnel shaped distal end w/fimbrae
ampulla- broad thin walled, longest
isthmus- thick walled w/constricted lumen
uterine portion- w/in muscular wall of uterus, very constricted lumen
uterus parts
body- largest in adult
cavity- triangular shaped lumen of body
fundus- portion of body projecting above uterine tube
cervix- muscular, tubular caudel portion projecting into vagina
anteverted uterus
tilted fowards vagina
anteflexed
curve in body making uterus more posterior
broad ligament
peritoneal reflections from lateral edges of uterus
basically divides pelvis into ant and post segments
3 parts
mesovarium
mesosalpinx
mesometrium
mesovarium
pouch-like extension providing support for ovary
mesosalpinx
portion immediately adjacent to uterine tubes
mesometrium
major portion extending from uterus to lateral pelvic wall
pouches near uterus
recto-uterine (btwn rectum and uterus)
vesico-uterine (btwn bladder and uterus)
blood supply to ovary
ovarian a- from abdominal aorta travels w/suspensory lig of ovary
ovarian br of uterine a- passes laterally in broad lig to anastomose w/ovarian a
blood supply to uterus and uterine tubes
uterine a- br of ant trunk of interal iliac courses thru broad lig gives off 2 brr near cervix -cervical br -vaginal br gives off 2 brr near fundus -tubal a -ovarian br of uterine
blood supply to vagina
vaginal brr of uterine a- upper portion
vaginal a- from internal iliac, middle portion
internal pudendal- lower portion
