Q

Embryonic development

Also tell me about the ovarian decent

A

No testosterone, no Mullerian inhibiting factor (MIF) =
➡Mesonephric duct regresses
➡Paramesonephric (Mullerian) duct progresses to form uterine tubes, uterus and cervix. Side 4

Ovarian decent:
-ovaries descend from posterior abdominal wall to a point just inferior to the pelvic brim
-they DO NOT pass through the inguinal canal at any point
-tethered by gubernaculum slide 5
-the cranial gubernaculum becomes ovarian ligament
-caudal (lower) gubernaculum forms the ROUND LIGAMENT OF UTERUS
-ovaries are just inferior to the pelvic brim
-intra-peritoneal
-media
To external iliac blood vessels-posterior to uterus
-anterior to internal iliac vessels

Q

Bulbospongiosus and ischiocavernosus. What are they what do they do? What are they innervated by?

Q

What are the 3 layers of the uterine wall?

A
  1. Perimetrium: visceral peritoneum
  2. Myometrium: thick muscular
  3. Endometrium: mucosal

2 main layers:

  1. Stratum functionalis “functional layer”
  2. Stratum basal is “basal layer”

Q

Vagina sheath. What are the 3 layers- slide 30

A
  1. Outer fibroelastic adventitia
  2. Smooth muscle muscularis
  3. Mucosa- marked by rugae
    - no glands I’m vaginal mucosa-lubricated by cervical mucous glands
16
Q

What are the arteries of the female pelvis?

A

-internal iliac artery, the uterine artery branches of this and the vaginal artery branches of that. Slide 31

The ovarian arteries branch from the abdominal aorta
The uterine and vaginal artery branch from the internal iliac arteries. Slide 32

17
Q

Defs check out slide 33 and know it

A

Yep

18
Q

Tell me about the nut cracker phenomenon

A
  • the superior messengering artery overlies the left renal vain
  • left renal vein drains left ovary, left sides of uterus, bladder, vagina, urethra and rectum
  • congestion of organs and collateral vessels can cause pain
19
Q

Tell me about the innervation of the female pelvis

A

Slide 35

  • superior hypo gastric plexus (plexus were the abdominal aorta birfucates)
  • sacral splanchnic nerve (sympathetic)
  • inferior hypo gastric plexus
  • pelvic splanchnic nerves (parasympathetic)
20
Q

Pudendal nerve - know the shit out of it

A

From sacral plexus (S2-S4)

  • main nerve of the Perineum
  • chief sensory nerve of the external genitalia
  • it leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foremen between the piriformis and coccygeus muscles. It then hooks around the ischial spine and sacrospinous ligament and enters the perineum through the lesser sciatic foremen.
21
Q

Autonomic innervation of the female pelvis

Know the shit out of it

A

-pre-synaptic SYMPATHETIC fibres arising from the IML do spinal cord levels T12-L2 traverse the sympathetic trunk and pass through the LUMBAR SPLANCHNIC NERVES to synapse in PREVERTEBRAL GANGLIA with post-synaptic fibres
-pre-synaptic PARASYMPATHETIC fibres arising from S2-S4 anterior rami pass through the pelvic splanchnic nerves to synapse with post-synaptic fibres on uterus and vagina (and also vasodilator fibre to erectile tissue of clitoris)
-autonomic fibres travel through SUPERIOR AND INFERIOR HYPOGASTRIC PLEXUS to reach the pelvic viscera.
Slide 38 and 39

22
Q

Somatic innervation:

Know the shit out of it

A

SOMATIC SENSATION from the opening of the vagina
Also passes to the S2-S4 spinal ganglia via the PUDENDAL nerve- only inferior portion sensitive to touch and temperature.

23
Q

Refferd pain: know the shit out of it

A

-visceral affront (pain) fibres from ovaries and uterus travel with least thoracic and lumbar splanchnic nerves to spinal ganglia at vertebrae T12-L2
Where is the pain from menstrual cramps felt?
Visceral afferent (pain) fibres from cervix and vagina travel with pelvic splanchnic nerves to spinal ganglia of vertebrae S2-S4?
We’re is the pain from Pap smear felt?

24
Q

Endometriosis

A

-endometrium growing outside
Pain: severe cramping on both sides of pelvis, radiating down lower back and rectal area and down legs
What dermatomes does this involve?
