Q

External Genitalia Female

A

Mons pubis (more superficial); fatty subcutaneous tissue

Labia major

  • underneath the mons pubis
  • Has the pudendal cleft
  • Anterior and posterior commisure (two extreme points of the pudendal cleft)

Labia minora

  • erectile tissue
  • contains the frenulum

Clitoris

  • Glans
  • Prepuce
  • Frenulum

Vestibule of pudendal cleft

  • between the labia minor
  • will find the opening of the urethra (paraurethral glands)
  • Vagina
  • Hymen will cover those areas in younger women

Vestibular glands: lubricates the vestibule

  • Greater (Bartholin): Ducts open at vestibule (superfical perineal space)
  • Lesser: ducts open between the urethra and vagina

Inferior rectal vessels and nerves

Nerve to obturator internus

Perforating branch of S2 and S3

Perineal branch (S4)

18
Q

Anal Canal

A

Distal portion og the GI system

Begins at the puborectalis muscle and ends at the anus

19
Q

External anal sphincter

A

Voluntary muscle

Inferior ⅔ anal canal

Presents deep, superficical, and subcutaneous bundle of muscular tissue

Innervated by the inferior rectal nerve (S4)

20
Q

A

Involuntary muscle

Covers the superior ⅔ anal canal

Thickening of circular muscle layer

Innervated by the parasympathetic splanchnic nerves

21
Q

A

Internal stucture of the anal canal

Located at the mose superior portion of the anal canal

Presents the anorectal line

22
Q

Arterial supply and venous supply of anal columns

A

23
Q

Anal valves

A

Seen at the inferior end of the anal columns and presents glands and crypts that function to lubricate the anal canal during defecation

24
Q

Anal sinuses

A

Stores lubricating fluid

25
Q

Pectinate (dentate) line

A

Superior part (hindgut)

  • Irrigation: Superior rectal vessels (inferior mesenteric artery)
  • lymphatics: Internal iliac lymph nodes
  • innervation: inferior hypogastric plexus (autonomic); sensory and motor function

Inferior (protodeum)

  • irrigation: Middle and inferior rectal vessles (branches of pudendal arteries)
  • Lymphatics: superficial inguinal lymph nodes
  • Innervation: somactic sensory ; inferior rectal nerves (pudendal nerves)
