Male and female UG triangle Flashcards
contents of male UG triangle (overall)
external genitalia, erectile tissue masses UG diaphragm lower part of urethra vessels and nerves bulbourethral glands
Superficial perineal fascia continuous with
Campers fascia of abdomen
deeper part of superficial perineal fascia continuous with AKA
continuous with Scarpas fascia AKA Colle’s fascia now
deepest part of fascia
where is it attached
Dartos fascia
attached to posterior border of UG diaphragm and laterally to ischiopubic rami
superficial perineal pouch is made by
colles fascia
inferior fascia of UG diaphragm aka perineal membrane
deep perineal pouch is made by
inferior and superior fascia of UG diaphragm
contents of superficial perineal space M
Root of penis muscles - ischiocarvernosum- -bulbospongiosum -superficial transverse perineal muscle central perineal tendon
contents of superficial perineal space F
- ischiocarvernosum-
- bulbospongiosum-
- superficial transverse perineal muscle -
Bartholins glands - secrete mucus
function of ischiocavernosum M F
Male: cover crura of penis, assists in erection
female: cover crura of clit
function of bulbospongiosum M F
male: two halves joined at the midline covering the bulb of the penis at posterior portion of corpus spongiosum
assits in erection and emptying of urethra
female: acts a sphincter for vagina insert into clit
function of superficial transverse perineal muscle m/f
From ischial rami to perineal body
Male/ Female: hold and fix central perineal tendon (perineal body) in place
Where does the inferior fascia of UG diaphragm fuse***
fuses anteriorly and posteriorly with superior fascia of UG diaphragm
posteriorly* it fuses with posterior border of Colles fascia :WHICH PROVIDES ANTERIOR BOUNDARY FOR THE ISCHIORECTAL FOSSA BELOW THE PERINEAL MEMBRANE
where does the posterior fascia of UG diaphragm fuse**
anteriorly and posteriorly with inferior fascia of UG diaphragm
IT FORM THE FLOOR OF THE ANTERIOR SUPERIOR RECESS OF THE ISCHIORECTAL FOSSA*** (BARRIER)
contents of male UG diaphragm aka deep perineal pouch
- sphincter urethrae muscle
- deep transverse perineal muscles
- bulbourethral glands
- deep branches of internal pudental vessels
- perineal branches of pudental nerve [ and dorsal nerve of penis]
contents of female UG diaphragm aka deep perineal pouch
(muscles-same as male- but less developed )
- sphincter urethrae
- deep transverse perineal muscles
- deep branches of internal pudental vessels
- perineal branches of pudental nerve [dorsal nerve of the clitoris ]
