16
Q

what are the contents of the spermatic cord?

A

ductus deferens, testicular a, artery of the ductus deferens, cremasteric a, pampiniform plexus (of veins), sympathetic nerve fibers, and genital branch of genitofemoral nerve.

17
Q

where is the ampulla of the ductus deferens located?

A

closet to the ejaculatory ducts

18
Q

what is a deferentectomy/ vasectomy?

A

the ligation or excision of the ductus deferens through an incision made in the superior scrotum

19
Q

What are the scrotum?

A

skin, dartos fascia, dartos muscle

20
Q

what are the layers of the spermatic cord?

A

external spermatic fascia, cremasteric fascia, cremasteric muscle, internal spermatic fascia

21
Q

what are the layers of the testis?

A

parietal tunica vaginalis, visceral tunica vaginalis, tunica albuginea

22
Q

what is the purpose of the straight tubule?

A

they transfer spermatozoa to the rete testis

23
Q

what are the rete testis?

A

sinusoidal spaces where the spermatozoa enter the efferent ductules of the epididymis

24
Q

what are the efferent ductules?

A

they transfer spermatozoa from the rete testis to the head and body of the epididymis

25
Q

what is the fascia that surrounds the penis?

A

the deep fascia of the penis (made of deep perineal fascia)

26
Q

what does the root of the penis include?

A

the bulb and crura of the penis, the bulbospongiosus m and the ischiocavernosus m

27
Q

what does the body of the penis include?

A

the paired corpus cavernosa, corpus spongiosum, and spongy urethra

28
Q

what is the glans penis continuous with?

A

the corpus spongiosum

29
Q

what is the ventral cylinder of the penile erectile tissue from proximal to distal?

A

unpaired- bulb of the penis, corpus spongiosum, and the glans penis

30
Q

what is the dorsal cylinder of the penile erectile tissue from proximal to distal?

A

paired- crura of the penis, corpora cavernosa

31
Q

what does the corpus cavernosum house?

A

the paired deep Artery of the penis

32
Q

what does enlargement of the prostate gland cause? and when does it often occur?

A

occurs with increasing age and can impinge the prostatic urethra- impending urination

33
Q

how can enlargement of the prostate gland and prostatic cancer be determined?

A

by digital rectal examination

34
Q

what are the seminal vesicles?

A

paired elongated structure between the urinary bladder and the rectum

35
Q

where do the ejaculatory ducts begin?

A

at the union of the ampulla of the ductus deferens and ducts of the seminal vesicle

36
Q

what is the duct of the bulbourethral gland?

A

it conveys bulbourethral secretions to the intrabulbar fossa of the spongy urethra
