Reproductive System > Anatomy > Anatomy Penis Reproductive System > Anatomy > Anatomy Key Function: Conduct urine and semen to the outside environment. Key Anatomical Features: Skin • Prepuce covers glans, is retractable in the adult. Vessels • Superficial dorsal vein and artery • Deep dorsal vein • Deep arteries within corpus cavernosa Connective tissues • Deep fascia surrounds erectile bodies and binds them together • Intercavernous fascia separate corpora cavernosa from corpus spongiosum. Erectile bodies • Covered in tunica albuginea • Comprise vascular tissues that engorge with blood upon arousal. Singular corpus spongiosum surrounds the urethra: • Glans is distal expansion; corona is rim of glans • Bulb is the widened proximal end • The bulb anchors the corpus spongiosum to the perineal membrane (not shown); • The bulb is wrapped in the bulbospongiosum muscle, which contracts to: force blood into the erectile tissues, eject residual urine from the urethra, and produce pulsatile movements during ejaculation. Paired corpus cavernosa (singular = cavernosum) • Lie dorsal to corpus spongiosum 1 / 3 • Crus (singular = crura) of the corpus cavernosa extend laterally • Crus attach to the pubic arch of the pelvis (not visible here), and are wrapped by ischiocavernosus muscles; like the bulbospongiosum, these muscles force blood into the erectile tissues. Root • Comprises bulb and crus of penis Shaft • Free, pendulous portion of penis between root and glans Urethra • Conducts semen to external environment • Terminates at external urethral orifice • Urethral glands secrete mucus to protect urethra from urine Anatomical orientation • Dorsal surface faces the torso • Ventral surface faces away from the torso. Semen/Seminal Fluid: Semen (aka, seminal fluid) • Comprises sperm and seminal plasma. Sperm • Gametes (aka, sex cells), produced by the testes Seminal plasma • Nourishes and protects the sperm • Produced and secreted by the seminal vesicles, bulbourethral glands, and urethral glands. Origins of semen: 2 / 3 Bulbourethral glands (aka, Cowper's glands) • Secrete lubricating mucus prior to arrival of the rest of the semen into spongy urethra Ampulla of ductus deferens • Drains sperm Seminal vesicles • Drain viscous, sugary seminal plasma fluid Ejaculatory duct • Where sperm and seminal vesicle secretions mix; merger of ductus deferens and seminal vesicle Prostate gland • Secretes alkaline, enzyme-rich fluid that protects sperm Ejaculate • Semen after it has been ejected from the urethra. Clinical correlation • Male circumcision is the surgical removal of the some or all of the prepuce, which leaves the glans exposed. • A "fractured" penis occurs when the tunica albuginea tears, typically as a consequence of abrupt angling of an erect penis; swelling and bruising result.

Reproductive System Reference Sheet 3: GLOSSARY Anus – The opening in the buttocks from which bowel movements come when a person goes to the bathroom. It is part of the digestive system; it gets rid of body wastes. Buttocks – The medical word for a person’s “bottom” or “rear end.” Cervix – The opening of the uterus into the vagina. Circumcision – An operation to remove the foreskin from the penis. Cowper’s Glands – Glands on either side of the urethra that make a discharge which lines the urethra when a man gets an erection, making it less acid-like to protect the sperm. Clitoris – The part of the female genitals that’s full of nerves and becomes erect. It has a glans and a shaft like the penis, but only its glans is on the out side of the body, and it’s much smaller. Discharge – Liquid. Urine and semen are kinds of discharge, but the word is usually used to describe either the normal wetness of the vagina or the abnormal wetness that may come from an infection in the penis or vagina. Duct – Tube, the fallopian tubes may be called oviducts, because they are the path for an ovum.

  • 1 Male Checklist Male Reproductive System Components of the Male
    Male Checklist Male Reproductive System Components of the male Testes; accessory glands and ducts; the penis; and reproductive system the scrotum. Functions of the male The male reproductive system produces sperm cells that reproductive system can be transferred to the female, resulting in fertilization and the formation of a new individual. It also produces sex hormones responsible for the normal development of the adult male body and sexual behavior. Penis The penis functions as the common outlet for semen (sperm cells and glandular secretions) and urine. The penis is also the male copulatory organ, containing tissue that can fill with blood resulting in erection of the penis. Prepuce A fold of skin over the distal end of the penis. Circumcision is the surgical removal of the prepuce. Corpus spongiosum A spongy body consisting of erectile tissue. It surrounds the urethra. Sexual excitement can cause erectile tissue to fill with blood. As a result, the penis becomes erect. Glans penis The expanded, distal end of the corpus spongiosum. It is also called the head of the penis. Bulb of the penis The proximal end of the corpus spongiosum. Bulbospongiosus muscle One of two skeletal muscles surrounding the bulb of the penis. At the end of urination, contraction of the bulbospongiosus muscles forces any remaining urine out of the urethra. During ejaculation, contractions of the bulbospongiosus muscles ejects semen from the penis. Contraction of the bulbospongiosus muscles compresses the corpus spongiosum, helping to maintain an erection. Corpus cavernosum One of two spongy bodies consisting of erectile tissue that (pl., corpora cavernosa) form the sides and front of the penis.

LEYDIG CELL • Leydig cells are present near the capillaries in the interstitial space between seminiferous tubules. • They are rich in mitochondria & endoplasmic reticulum. • Leydig cells secrete testosterone,DHEA & Androstenedione. • The activity of leydig cell is different in different phases of life.

  • Urology & Incontinence
    Urology & Incontinence - Glossary of Terms Anti-reflux Refers to a tube or collapsible material within a urine collection device to help prevent urine from reentering the tubing. Applicator collar Found on some Hollister male external catheters, a plastic guide with notches for the thumb and forefinger to assist proper placement against the tip of the penis. Aseptic intermittent catheterization The process of performing intermittent catheterization using sterile equipment and inserting the catheter in a sterile way. This would include a sterile ready-to-use product that can be inserted with gloves using a no-touch technique (e.g., the Advance Plus intermittent catheter or a VaPro hydrophilic catheter). Benzalkonium chloride (BZK) An antimicrobial solution used for cleansing the urethral opening prior to inserting an intermittent catheter. Does not stain skin or clothing. Bladder A collapsible balloon-like muscular organ that lies in the pelvis and functions to store and expel urine. Bladder catheterization A procedure in which a catheter is passed through the urethra or stoma into the bladder, usually for the purpose of draining urine. Bladder control The ability to control urination. Bladder diary A printed or electronic form to keep track of when one urinates or leaks urine. Catheter (urinary) A special type of hollow tube inserted through the urethra or a stoma to the bladder to withdraw urine or instill medication. Catheterization The process of inserting a tube into the bladder to drain urine. Clean intermittent catheterization The process of emptying the bladder using a clean intermittent catheter. It involves inserting and removing a catheter, typically several times a day.
