OVARIES :

a : Produces Oocutes
b : Releases Hormones

It is Pinkish-white in colour & having a ovid shape. main functions of ovaries are formation of oocuptes and production and releasing hormones.

USAL SIZE : 3 cm LONG X 1.5 cm WIDE X 1 cm THICK
  BLOOD SUPPLY : From Ovarian Artery - Which
ARTERIAL : Emerges from AORTA, below the Renal Artery
  VENOUS : drainage... Pampine form plexus.
Rt. vein drains to INF. VENA CAVA
Lt. vein drains to LT. RENAL VEIN
  LYMPH DRAINAGE : LUMBAR LYMPH NODES
  NERVES : Vaso - motor


UTERUS :

It is a THICK-WALLED MUSCULAR ORGAN made up of three layers i.e. Perimetrium, myometrium and Endometrium.

The Endometrium undergoes cyclical changes induced by ovarian hormones at the on set of puberty. If pregnancy dose not occur, each cycle ends with the menstrual flow produced by the breakdown & discharge of all layers.

Length : 7 to 8 cm
Weight : 30 - 40 gms
Wide : 5 cm
Thick : 2 - 5 cm
Shape : Piriform - in shape

Body of the UTERUS : having a

  • FUNDUS and
  • TWO SURFACE : 1) A nteriar or Vesical 2) Posterior or Intestinal

The cavity of the uterus is a Triangular slit between the Intestinal & Vesical walls. the uterine tubes enter the angles in the fundus. The apex is continuous with the cervical canal - the junction is called the "Internal os".


OCERVIX :

Cylindrical in shape size : 2.5 cm long. The canal of the Cervix is spindle shaped & communicates above with the body of uterus.

Arterial Supply :

  • Chiefly by the two uterine arteries.
  • Partly by the ovarian arteries.

Venous Drainage :

Lymph Drainages :

  • Aortic Nodes
  • Superficial Inguinal nodes
  • Ext. Iliac
  • Int. Iliac
  • Sacral Nodes

Narve Supply : Interiar Hypogastric plexus

  • Sympathetic Nerve T12 & L1 - Produces uterine contractions & vaso - constrictions.
  • The Para - Sympathetic Nerve - S2, S3, S4 Produces uterine - inhibition & vasodilatation.

FALLOPIAN TUBES :

The main function of Fallopian tube is to carry the discharged gunm and fertilisation of ovum.

It is a 10 cms. long, muscular structure lined internally with nucus membrane. It is sub divides in to three parts

1. INFUNDIBULUM :
Its is a Lateral end, funnel-shaped which contains fimbriae.
2. AMPULLA :
is medial to the infundibulum which comprises 6 - 7 cms of the tube (lat. 2/3).
3. ISTHMUS :
is 2 - 3 cms long and comprises medial 1/3 of the tube.

BLOOD SUPPLY : Uterine artery - (Medial 2/3rd ) Overian artery (Lateral 1/3rd)

VEINS : Pampiniform plexus of the ovary and uterine veins.

LYMPH DRAINAGE :

  • Lateral Aortic Nodes.
  • Pre-Aortic Nodes and
  • Superficial Inguinal nodes.

NEVER SUPPLY :

  • Sympathetic Nerves : (T10 to L2) derived froul the Hypogastric Plexus.
  • Para - sympathetic nerves : derived from the VAGUS.
