A

broad

round

suspensory

peritoneal folds

25
Q

arterial supply to the ovaries

A

ovarian a

uterine a

vaginal a

26
Q

the ovarian a originates from the __

and is contained w.in the __

A

abd aorta

broad ligament

27
Q

the uterine and vaginal arteries arise from the

cremasteric a arises from the __

to the __

external iliac

inferior epigastric a

33

venous supply to the testes

A

testicular vein

34

testicular v drains to __ on the right

and __ on the left

A

right: IVC
left: renal vein

35

36
Q

the urachus is a hollow canal connecting the fetal __

to the __

A

bladder

umbilical cord

37
Q

during fetal development, the urachus becomes the __

A

median umbilical ligament/fold

38
Q

the medial umbilical ligament is a remnant of the

A

umbilical a

39
Q

the umbilical a is connected to the __ during fetal development

A

internal iliac

40
Q

during development:

urachus →

umbilical a →

A

urachus → median umbilical ligament/fold

umbilical a → medial umbilical ligament

41

alcock’s canal is same-same

A

pudendal canal

42
Q

contents of pudendal canal

A

pudendal v, a, n

43
Q

clinical significance of pudendal canal

A

injection of local anesthetic into canal medial to ischial tuberosity

44
Q

pudendal block more proximal adjacent to ischial spine will involve

A

inferior anal n

AND

perineal n

45

total hysterectomy is removal of

A

uterus

body

fundus

cervix

SPARES ovaries

47
Q

what structure must be preserved in a total hysterectomy

A

suspensory ligament of ovary → for vessel and nerve supply
