Q 
Muscles making up pelvic diaphragm

Q

Arteries in pelvis

A
  1. aorta
    - common iliac a
    • external iliac a–>femoral a
    • internal iliac a
      • iliolumbar a
      • lateral sacral a
      • superior gluteal a
      • inferior gluteal a
      • internal pudendal a
      • middle rectal a
      • superior vesical a
      • inferior vesical a
      • umbilical a
17
Q

male/female peritoneal recesses

A

Male: rectovesical pouch
Female: rectouterine pouch (of Douglas)
vesicouterine pouch

18
Q

Urinary components (3)

A
  1. ureters carry urine from kidney
  2. urinary bladder temporarily stores urine
  3. urethra conducts urine from urinary bladder to exterior

Adult: urinary bladder in retropubic space within lesser pelvis.
Children: bladder is in abdomen
enters greater pelvis at 6 yo, lesser pelvis at 16

19
Q
  1. What is the muscle that makes the bladder?
  2. What does the urethral sphincters do?
  3. Symp innervation
  4. para innervation
A
  1. detrusor m.- internal (involuntary), external (voluntary)
  2. help maintain urinary continence, internal sphincter prevent semen from entering bladder during ejaculation
  3. T11-L2, maintain continence by contraction of internal sphincter
  4. S2-4, allows urination by relaxing internal sphincter and contracting detrusor m.
20
Q

Four parts of male urethra

A
  1. intramural part
  2. prostatic urethra
  3. intermediate part
  4. spongy urethra
21
Q

Male pelvic viscera (8 structures)

A
  1. ductus deferens-takes pathway superior then posterior to bladder transmit sperm from epididymis of testis to prostatic urethra. Toward the end, ductus joins duct of seminal gland to form ejaculatory duct
  2. urianry bladder
  3. ureter
  4. seminal gland (vesicle)
  5. rectum
  6. prostate gland
  7. epididymis
  8. testis
22
Q
  1. seminal glands
  2. prostate gland
  3. ejaculatory duct
  4. bulbourethral glands
A
  1. 50-70% semen made of fluid secreted by seminal gland
  2. 20% semen made of secretion from prostate gland
  3. ejaculatory duct bring seminal fluid & sperm through prostate into prostatic urethra
  4. bulbourethral glands secrete a lubricating fluid during sexual arousal
23
Q

Penis structures

A
  • corpus cavernosum outside
  • corpus spongiosum
  • erectile tissues fill with blood to become turgid
  • spongy urethra runs through corpus spongiosum
  • at base of penus corpus cavernosum is called crus of the penis
  • corpus of spongiosum is call bulb of the penis
  • at the tip of penis corpus spongiosum expands into glans of the penis
24
Q

What are the two muscles at the base of penis? and the nerve

A
  1. ischiovavernosus muscle covers crus of penis
  2. bulbospongiosus muscle covers bulb of penis
  3. innervated by pudendal nerve
    - erectile tissues covered by thin muscles that help maintain erection
25
Q

Female pelvic viscera

A
  • short urethra
  • vaginal canal lies btw urethra and bladder anteriorly and anal canal and rectum posteriorly
  • vaginal canal ends in an expanded fornix that surrounds the cervix of the uterus
26
Q

female pelvic structures:

A 
-ureter
ovarian a and v.
uterine tube
ovary
proper ligament of ovary uterus
urinary bladder
urethra
clitoris
labia minora/majora
cervix
rectum
vagina levator ani m.
anus
vaginal orifice
27
Q

What is the function of broad ligament and what suspend there?
what does the uterine tube do?
what causes prolapsed uterus?

A
  1. secure everything to the lateral pelvic walls
  2. uterus, uterine tubes, ovaries in the double layer of peritoneum
  3. uterine tube receives and conveys the ovum from the ovary to the uterine cavity
  4. prolapsed uterus results when the uterus descends abnormally into the vagina
28
Q

Erectile tissue homology

A

penis=clitoris
crus of clitoris/glands of clitoris=crus of penis, glands of penis
bulbs of vestibule=bulb of penis

29
Q

Structure in female genitalia

A
  • ischocavernous m. covers crus of clitoris

- bulbospongiosus m. covers bulbs of vestibule (the vestibule is the region btw the labia minora)

30
Q

innervation of pelvis and perineum (symp/para)

  1. sexual function
  2. defecation and urination
A
  1. para- spinal cord S2-4
    -erection relaxation of smooth muscles in walls of arteries, allowing blood to fill erectile tissue
    2..symp L1-2
    -ejaculation in males contraction of smooth muscles in walls of the ductus deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate and urethra
    -orgasm in females rhythmic contractions of smooth muscles in walls of vagina
  2. para S2-4
    -relaxation smooth muscle internal sphincters of bladder and rectum, contraction smooth muscle in walls of these organs
    -symp L1-2
    -contraction of smooth muscle internal sphincters to maintain continence
    -voluntary somatic control S2-4
    contraction of striated muscle external sphincters to maintain continence.
