Q

Arterial supply of the uterus, ovaries, ureter, skin of labia & inguinal region

A

Ovarian artery (L2)- branch of the abdominal aorta

The arterial blood supply of the uterus comes from three arteries: the uterine branch of the ovarian artery, the uterine artery of the external iliac artery, and the uterine branch of the urogenital artery. All arteries enter the uterus at its mesometrial border and divide into smaller ones.

Q

What artery does the ovarian artery anastomose with

A

Uterine artery

22
Q

At what level does the uterine artery cross the ureter

A

The level of the ischial spine, junction of cervix and lateral part of fornix of vagina.

23
Q

WHat is testicular torsion?

A

Testicular torsion is a surgical emergency, where the spermatic cord twists upon itself. This can lead to strangulation of the testicular artery, resulting in necrosis of the testis.

24
Q

What arteries are found in the spermatic cord

A

Testicular artery
Cremasteric artery and vein
Artery to ductus deferens

25
Q

What does the genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve supply?

A

The genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve enters the inguinal canal via the deep inguinal ring.

Males - scrotal skin and cremaster muscle. **
Females (accompanied by the round ligament of the uterus) supplies sensation to the labia majora and mons pubis**

26
Q

What nerve is found in the spermatic cord?

A

Genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve

27
Q

What is the arteriel supply to the vulva?
(inc: 1. Mons pubis 2. Labia majora 3. Labia minora

  1. Vestibule 5. Bartholin’s glands 6. Clitoris)
A

Internal peudendal artery

28
Q

Where do the veins surrounding the prostate drain?

A

Veins surrounding prostate form the prostatic venous plexus which drains into the internal iliac vein

29
Q

What is the inferior rectal artery a branch of

A

Internal peudendal artery

30
Q

What is the superior rectal artery a branch of?

A

Inferior mesenteric artery

31
Q

What is the middle rectal artery a branch of?

A

Internal iliac artery (anterior division)

32
Q

With which venous plexus does the prostatic venous plexus communicate with on its posterior side?

A

Internal vertebral venous plexus

33
Q

What veins drain into the external iliac vein?

A

Femoral vein
Inferior epigastric
Deep circumflex iliac veins

34
Q

What veins drain into the internal iliac vein?

A

Superior and inferior gluteal vein
Internal pudendal vein
Obturator, lateral sacral, middle rectal, vesical, uterine, and vaginal veins

35
Q

What structure (ligament) does the umbilical vein persist as in adult?

A

Round ligament

36
Q

What is the function of umbilical veins in the foetal circulation?

A

Carries newly oxygenated and nutrient rich blood back to the fetus

37
Q

into which vessels do the ovarian veins drain?

A

Left: left renal vein
Right: inferior vena cava

38
Q

What vein is contained in the…
1. suspensory ligament
2. cardinal ligament

A
  1. ovarian vein
  2. Uterine vein
39
Q

What vein is contained in the spermatic cord

A

cremasteric vein & papniform plexus of testicular veins

40
Q

What is the venous drainage of the testes

A

Papmniform plexus

41
Q

What is the function of the papniform plexus

A

venous return and temperature regulation of the testes..

42
Q

Into which vein does the testicular vein drain?

A

The right testicular vein drains into ..inferior vena cava..
The left testicular vein drains into …left renal vein..

43
Q

A varicocele is a pathology specifically to the venous drainage of the testis
What is varicocele?

A

When the pampiniform plexus of veins become dilated

44
Q

Name the main cause of a varicocele

A

… Varicoceles may result from defective valves in the testicular vein, but kidney or renal vein problems can also result in distension of the pampiniform veins

45
Q

WHat is testicular torsion?

A

Testicular torsion is a surgical emergency, where the spermatic cord twists upon itself. This can lead to strangulation of the testicular artery, resulting in necrosis of the testis.
