Systems that are similar include the nervous, skeletal, respiratory (neglecting the under developed diaphragm), and muscular. Other important body systems have significant differences from the adult pig.

Dissection of prostate showing the bulbourethral glands within the fibers of the external urethral sphincter just underneath the prostate. The bulbourethral glands are compound tubulo-alveolar glands, each approximately the size of a pea in humans. In chimpanzees, they are not visible during dissection, but can be found on microscopic ...
The standard anatomical position, or standard anatomical model, is the scientifically agreed upon reference position for anatomical location terms.Standard anatomical positions are used to standardise the position of appendages of animals with respect to the main body of the organism.
This list of related male and female reproductive organs shows how the male and female reproductive organs and the development of the reproductive system are related, sharing a common developmental path. This makes them biological homologues. These organs differentiate into the respective sex organs in males and females.

Ascaris suum, also known as the large roundworm of pig, is a parasitic nematode that causes ascariasis in pigs.While roundworms in pigs and humans are today considered as two species (A. suum and A. lumbricoides) with different hosts, cross-infection between humans and pigs is possible; some researchers have thus argued they are the same species.
