Q

musculocavernous vs fibroelastic penis

A

musculocavernous: greater content of erectile tissue, lower content of fibroelastic tissue
fibroelastic: greater content of fibroelastic tissue, lower content of erectile tissue

16
Q

cavernous bodies are eventually replaced by what structure

A

os penis

17
Q

what structure contributes to tying during mating: musculocavernous penis (dogs)

A

bulbus glandis

18
Q

musculocavernous penis in cats: specialization, function

A

keratinized glans spikes
induced ovulation by stimulus of spikes

19
Q

function of spongy body in musculocavernous penis

A

enclose urethra

20
Q

body and glans: bulls vs rams/bucks

A

bulls: urethral process attached to glans
ram/buck: urethral process not attached to glans

21
Q

blood supply to cavernous bodies

A

artery of the penis

22
Q

blood supply to spongy bodies

A

artery of the bulb

23
Q

innervation of penis

A

pudendal nerve

24
Q

blood supply to bulbus glandis

A

dorsal artery of penis

25
Q

main blood supply to penis: general arteries

A

artery of penis + branches
continuation of internal pudendal

26
Q

artery of the penis: 3 branches

A

artery of the bulb
deep artery of penis
dorsal artery of penis

27
Q

venous drainage of penis: pathway

A

bulbus glandis –> deep vein of the glans –> dorsal vein of the glans –> internal pudendal vein

28
Q

erection: musculocavernous penis

A

results from positive balance in blood flow –> higher blood filling of cavernous and spongy bodies
more blood accumulates in penis as venous drainage is interrupted

29
Q

what penile muscles are involved in erection (and what do they do)

A

proximal to base of penis: constriction by ischiourethralis and ischiocavernosus
distal to base of penis: constriction by vestibular bulb, constrictor vestibuli and constrictor vulvae

30
Q

erection: fibroelastic penis

A

stimulated by temperature
lower blood filling of cavernous and spongy bodies
extension of sigmoid flexure

31
Q

erected penis shape in bulls/boars

A

corkscrew
spiraling

32
Q

prepuce definition and function

A

musculocutaneous shield that covers and protects the penis

33
Q

what muscle protracts the prepuce in dogs

A

preputialis

34
Q

2 muscles in prepuce: bull (and what they do)

A

preputial caudalis: retractor
preputial cranialis: protractor

35
Q

specialized structure in prepuce of boar

A

preputial diverticulum

36
Q

function of preputial diverticulum in boar

A

gland –> pheromones

37
Q

blood supply of prepuce

A

external pudendal artery and vein

38
Q

3 nerves that innervate prepuce

A

pudendal
iliohypogastric
ilioinguinal

39
Q

lymphatic drainage of penis and prepuce

A

penile: superficial inguinal node
prepuce: deep inguinal node
