The diameter of the urethra at the external urethral orifice is narrower than at any other point.

The urethra is least protected (most likely to rupture) at the bulb.

The intermediate (membranous) segment is the most distensible part of the urethra.

The location of the ducts of the bulbourethral glands must be identified in order to avoid injuring the glands.

The patient is likely to feel the most discomfort (sharpest pain) when the catheter penetrates the prostatic urethra.

Ruptured his corpus cavernosa and the swelling is due to blood.

Bruised his penis and scrotum and the swelling is due to lymph.

Ruptured his internal pudendal vein and the swelling is due to blood.

Ruptured his deep perineal pouch and the swelling is due to an inflammatory reaction resulting from the release of fluid from the bulbourethral glands

Vas deferens

Testis

Is characterized by a softening of the prostate that can be felt during a digital rectal exam.

Often metastasizes to the testes.

Is conclusively identified by a positive test of the external iliac lymph nodes.

Is best identified rectally when the patient has a full bladder.

Is associated with bladder cancer.

Uterine cancer

A prolapsed uterus

Menopause

Menstruation

Pregnancy

Occurs at the level of S3.

Is maintained by the transverse rectal folds.

Is where the alimentary tract penetrates the pelvic diaphragm.

Is within the rectovesical pouch.

Is where the omental appendices cease.

Posterior scrotal arteries.

Deep arteries of the penis.

Deep branches of the external pudendal arteries.

Deep dorsal vein

Superficial dorsal veins.

Terminates by uniting with the duct of the seminal glands to form the ejaculatory duct.

Is typically ligated during a vasectomy as it exits the superficial inguinal ring.

Begins at the head of the testis.

Is intraperitoneal.

Is drained by lymph vessels destined for the deep inguinal nodes.

Is more difficult to catheterize than the male urethra.

Has cilia that very effectively prevent bacteria from entering the bladder.

Begins with a distinct sphincter in the bladder, the internal urethral sphincter.

Has a distinct posterior ridge termed the urethral crest.

Opens into the vestibule of the vagina.

Convey vagal fibers to the pelvic viscera

Convey pelvic splanchnic fibers to pelvic viscera.

Convey sympathetic fibers to pelvic viscera.

Receive white communicating rami from the sacral spinal nerves.

Comprise the pelvic part of the sympathetic trunk.

Is innervated by pelvic splanchnic nerves.

Causes increased urination when spastic.

Is part of the urogenital diaphragm.

Actively contracts during coughing

Actively contracts during inspiration.

Denotes the separation of the external and internal sphincter ani muscles.

Denotes the separation between the rectal and anal mucosa.

Separates the part of teh anal canal that is innervated by sympathetic fibers from that innervated by parasympathetic fibers.

Separates the part of the anal canal that is sensitive to laceration from the part that is not.

Indicates the anorectal junction.

Forms the boundaries of the internal urethral orifice.

Is the internal area demarcated by the internal urethral and ureteric orifices.

Is a slight elevation of the internal posterior wall produced by the prostate.

Is the extraperitoneal part of the external surface.

Is synonymous with the apex.

Have afferent fibers that typically refer pain to the lower abdomen, especially the inguinal region.

Are intraperitoneal.

Cross anterior to the ductus deferens.

Pass straight through the bladder wall (in a horizontal plane).

Are accompanied throughout their length by arteries and veins derived from the renal vessels.

Is the inferior part of the rectouterine pouch.

Is the recess between the external urethral and vagina orifices.

Is part of the broad ligament.

Contains the ovaries.

Surrounds the vaginal part of the cervix.

The pelvic girdle is composed of the right and left hip bones and the sacrum.

In infants and children the hip bone is composed of three separate bones--the ilium, ischium, and pubis.

The ala of the ilium helps to form the acetabulum.

The ischial spine separates the greater and lesser sciatic foramina.

The pelvic brim separates the greater (false) and lesser (true) pelves.

They lie in the mesosalpinx part of the broad ligament.

Their distal part, the ampulla, surrounds the ovary.

They allow the development of peritonitis from genitourinary tract infections.

They may be ligated to prevent pregnancy.

They may become the site of an ectopic pregnancy.
