  2. Deep perineal pouch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_perineal_pouch

    The deep perineal pouch is bordered inferiorly by the perineal membrane, also known as the inferior fascia of the urogenital diaphragm. It is bordered superiorly by the superior fascia of the urogenital diaphragm. [1] The deep pouch is now described as the region between the perineal membrane and the pelvic diaphragm. [2]

  4. Pelvic floor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelvic_floor

    Some sources do not consider "pelvic floor" and "pelvic diaphragm" to be identical, with the "diaphragm" consisting of only the levator ani and coccygeus, while the "floor" also includes the perineal membrane and deep perineal pouch. [6] However, other sources include the fascia as part of the diaphragm. [7]

  5. Urethral sphincters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urethral_sphincters

    The female or male external sphincter muscle of urethra (sphincter urethrae): located in the deep perineal pouch, at the bladder's distal inferior end in females, and inferior to the prostate (at the level of the membranous urethra) in males. It is a secondary sphincter to control the flow of urine through the urethra.

  6. Perineal membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perineal_membrane

    The perineal membrane is an anatomical term for a fibrous membrane in the perineum. The term "inferior fascia of urogenital diaphragm", used in older texts, is considered equivalent to the perineal membrane. It is the superior border of the superficial perineal pouch, and the inferior border of the deep perineal pouch.

  7. Fascia of perineum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascia_of_perineum

    The fascia of perineum (deep perineal fascia, superficial investing fascia of perineum or Gallaudet fascia) is the fascia which covers the muscles of the superficial perineal pouch.

  8. Bartholin's gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartholin's_gland

    However, while Bartholin's glands are located in the superficial perineal pouch in females, bulbourethral glands are located in the deep perineal pouch in males. Their duct length is 1.5 to 2.0 cm and they open into navicular fossa. [2] The ducts are paired and they open on the surface of the vulva. [3]

  9. Bulbourethral gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulbourethral_gland

    Bulbourethral glands are located posterior and lateral to the membranous portion of the urethra at the base of the penis, between the two layers of the fascia of the urogenital diaphragm, in the deep perineal pouch. They are enclosed by transverse fibers of the sphincter urethrae membranaceae muscle.
