What does the cranial gluteal a supply
tensor fasia latae
superficial gluteal
middle gluteal
deep gluteal
What does cranial gluteal n supply? (without help from other n)
tensor fascia latae
Deep gluteal
What does cranial AND caudal gluteal n supply
superficial gluteal
middle gluteal
Lumbosacral plexus gives rise to what 2 important n in perineum
Caudal rectal n
Pudendal n
Caudal rectal n supplies
Coccygeus
Levator ani
External anal sphincter
Pudendal n supplies
Deep perineal n
Dorsal n of penis
Define inguinal canal
Inguinal canal is potential space situated between internal and external abdominal oblique muscles extending from deep to superficial inguinal ring
Borders of deep inguinal ring
Cranial=internal abdominal oblique
Medial=rectus abdominis
Caudal=inguinal ligament (from EAO)
What goes through inguinal canal in male 5
Testicular a, v Ductus deferens Cremaster m Genitofemoral n External pudendal a,v
What goes through inguinal canal in female 2
Genitofemoral n
External pudendal a,v
Where do structures in inguinal canal exit? what is at this location?
Exit at superficial inguinal ring
–>Here be superficial inguinal LN
How do you measure scrotal width?
Calipers
What type of penis does equine have
Musculocavernous
-Increases in girth rather than length at erection
What muscles support erection of penis
corpus cavernosus penis (CCP)
Ischiocavernosus m
What muscles facilitate ejaculation of penis
Corpus spongiosum penis (CSP)
Bulbospongiosus m
Urethral sinus opens into
Fossa glandis
What should be routinely cleaned
Fossa glandis and urethral process
What can be cultured to detect potential genital infections
Urethral cultures
Raised denticulated margin on glans penis
Corona glandis
Where is urethral process?
On glans penis within fossa glandis
Dorsal diverticulum of glans penis
urethral sinus
Unique trait about horse prepuse
Has internal and external lamina
Preputial orifice
Opening of preputial cavity to outside and lies far cranially in non-erect state and covers glans penis but is pushed back to body wall at erection.
Describe external lamina
Attached ventral body wall and covered by hair
Describe internal lamina
Hairless and forms preputial fold in non-erect state which provides material that facilitates penile elongation
Attachment of internal lamina
-importance
Preputial ring
-During erection, internal lamina is stretched out. Attached to preputial ring
What is the free part of the penis
Part of internal lamina that lies cranial to preputial ring and does NOT extend as far as the glans penis
