The deep transverse perineal muscle is innervated by the pudendal nerve. The function of the muscle is fixation of the perineal body (central tendon of perineum), support of the pelvic floor, expulsion of semen in males and last drops of urine in both sexes. [2] The deep transverse perineal muscle lies in the same plane as the urethral ...
The deep perineal pouch contains: muscles Deep transverse perineal muscles; External sphincter muscle of male urethra; External sphincter muscle of female urethra; Compressor urethrae muscle in the female is sometimes included [3] Urethrovaginal sphincter in the female is sometimes included [3] other
As might be expected, the contents of the urogenital triangle differ greatly between the male and the female. Some of the components include: [1] Posterior scrotal nerves / posterior labial nerves; Urethra; Vagina; Bulbourethral gland / Bartholin's gland; Muscles Superficial transverse perineal muscle; Ischiocavernosus muscle; Bulbospongiosus ...
The perineal body (or central tendon of perineum) is a pyramidal fibromuscular mass in the middle line of the perineum at the junction between the urogenital triangle and the anal triangle. In males, it is found between the bulb of the penis and the anus ; in females, it is found between the vagina and anus, and about 1.25 cm (0.49 in) in front ...
The perineal membrane has two distinct portions that span the opening of the anterior pelvic outlet. [2]The ventral (anterior) portion is associated with the compressor urethra and urethrovaginal sphincter muscles (previously called deep transverse perineal muscles), and is continuous with the insertion of the arcus tendineus fascia pelvis. [3]
superficial transverse perinei; The perineum attaches across the gap between the inferior pubic rami bilaterally and the perineal body. This grouping of muscles constricts to close the urogenital openings. The perineum supports and functions as a sphincter at the opening of the vagina. Other structures exist below the perineum that support the ...
The deep branch of the perineal nerve (or muscular branches) is a nerve of the perineum. It is a branch of the perineal nerve , from the pudendal nerve . It supplies the superficial transverse perineal muscle , bulbospongiosus muscle , ischiocavernosus muscle , the bulb of penis , levator ani , and the external anal sphincter .
The anal triangle can be defined either by its vertices or its sides.. Vertices. one vertex at the coccyx bone; the two ischial tuberosities of the pelvic bone; Sides. perineal membrane (posterior border of perineal membrane forms anterior border of anal triangle)
