    Study Notes

    Nerves and Symptoms

    • Damage to the ilioinguinal nerve can result in loss of sensation over the right scrotum and on the medial right thigh
    • The ilioinguinal nerve is responsible for sensation in the scrotum and medial thigh

    Ductus Deferens and Prostatic Urethra

    • The ductus deferens is connected to the prostatic urethra by the ejaculatory duct
    • The ejaculatory duct is a structure that connects the ductus deferens to the prostatic urethra

    Lymph Nodes and Testis

    • The para-aortic nodes receive lymph from the testis
    • The para-aortic nodes are located near the aorta and receive lymphatic drainage from the testes

    Fascia and Spermatic Cord

    • The internal spermatic fascia is derived from the fascia transversalis
    • The internal spermatic fascia is a layer of fascia that surrounds the spermatic cord

    Sperm Movement and Development

    • The sequence of sperm movement is: seminiferous tubules → rete testis → efferent ductules
    • The rete testis is a network of tubules that connects the seminiferous tubules to the efferent ductules

    Testicular Vein and Drainage

    • The left testicular vein drains into the left renal vein
    • The left testicular vein is responsible for draining blood from the testis

    Nerves and Herniorrhaphy

    • Injury to the ilioinguinal nerve during a herniorrhaphy may cause paresthesia at the root of the scrotum and base of the penis
    • The ilioinguinal nerve is responsible for sensation in the scrotum and medial thigh

    Prostate Gland and Lobe

    • The median lobe of the prostate gland raises the uvula vesicae
    • The median lobe is a part of the prostate gland that lies between the urethra and the rectum

    Spermatic Cord and Vasectomy

    • The genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve is not at risk of injury during vasectomy
    • The genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve is responsible for sensation in the scrotum and medial thigh

    Bartholin's Gland and Cyst

    • A cyst of the greater vestibular gland (Bartholin's cyst) is produced by the retention of secretion caused by the blockage of the duct
    • The cyst of the greater vestibular gland is a structure that can become blocked and cause a cyst to form

    Uterus and Supports

    • The supports of the uterus are: uterosacral ligament, Mackenrodt's ligament, and levator ani
    • The uterus is supported by several ligaments and muscles that help maintain its position

    Bartholin's Gland and Development

    • The Bartholin's gland is homologous to the male bulbourethral gland
    • The Bartholin's gland is a structure that develops from the same embryonic tissue as the male bulbourethral gland

    Uterus and Position

    • The normal position of the uterus is anteverted and anteflexed
    • The uterus is normally positioned in a way that it is tilted forward and upward

    Uterus and Prolapse

    • The transverse cervical ligament prevents prolapse of the uterus
    • The transverse cervical ligament is a structure that helps support the uterus and prevent it from prolapsing

    Vulva and Parts

    • The parts of the vulva are: labia minora, labia majora, perineal body, and clitoris
    • The vulva is a group of structures that make up the external female genitalia

    Genital Ridge and Development

    • The genital ridge appears on the 8th week of development
    • The genital ridge is a structure that forms early in embryonic development and gives rise to the genital system

    Indifferent Gonad and Development

    • The indifferent gonad arises by coelomic epithelial proliferation
    • The indifferent gonad is a structure that forms early in embryonic development and gives rise to the ovaries or testes

    Primordial Germ Cells and Development

    • The primordial germ cells arise from the coelomic epithelium and migrate to the gonadal ridge
    • The primordial germ cells are the cells that give rise to the gametes (sperm and eggs)

    Sex Determination and Development

    • Sex determination occurs initially through the SRY transcription factor to form testes
    • The SRY transcription factor is a gene that plays a crucial role in determining the sex of an individual
