male pelvis Flashcards
muscles in the scrotum
cremaster muscles
normal testis length
3 to 5 cm
normal testis width
2 to 4 cm
normal testis height
3 cm
normal epi measurement
6-7 cm
how does the epi course
superior then posterolateral
normal epi head measurment
6 - 15 mm
appendix testis
embryonic remants of mullerian ducts
what covers the testis and is dense fibrous tissue
tunica albuginea
job of mediastinum
supports the vessels and ducts coursing within the testis
2 layers of the tunica vaginalis
partietal and visceral
what does the tunica vaginalis line
the inner walls of the scrotum
also covers each testis and epi
the parietal layer of the tunica vaginalis covers
scrotal wall
the visceral layer of the tunica vaginalis covers the
testis and epi
the ductus epi becomes the
vas deferens
10 to 15 efferent ductules converge to form the
ductus epi
the spermatic cord extends from
the scrotum through inguinal canal to pelvis
primary blood flow to the testis
right and left testicular arteries
capsular arteries give rise to
centripetal arteries
the centripetal arteries form the
centrifugal arteries
doppler of the testis arteries
low resistance
where does the pampiniform plexus exit from
the mediastinum
right testi vein drains into
IVC
left testi vein drains into
left renal vein
