Study Notes

Tunica Vaginalis

Serous covering of the testis
Composed of parietal and visceral layers
Surrounds both the testis and epididymis
Allows for free movement of the testis within the scrotum

Rete Testis

Network of ducts within the testis
Sperm travels from seminiferous tubules through the rete testis
Connects the seminiferous tubules to the epididymis

Scrotum

Left scrotum is slightly lower than the right
Houses and protects the testis
Regulates testicular temperature

Prostate Surgery

Prostatectomy (surgical removal of the prostate) can lead to impotency
Prostatic venous plexus is a key structure surgeons must be careful with during prostate procedures
