(Return to Courseware Index) Male and Female Pelvic VisceraLAB MANUAL |Topic and Text Reference | Learning Objectives | Special Instructions | Clinical Exercises | Key Structures TOPIC AND TEXT REFERENCE: MALE AND FEMALE PELVIC VISCERA PP 103-107, 113-118 LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Identify the male and female reproductive organs. Be able to trace the path of a spermatozoa from testis to urethra. Be able to trace the path of an ovum from ovary to vagina. Understand and the blood supply and innvervation to the reproductive organs. Understand the ligaments and muscles that support the uterus. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR LAB TODAY: Pg. 103 and 113: We have transected and bisected all the odd numbered cadavers. So each table should receive a half pelvis from a neighboring table. In this way you are able to study the pelvic viscera intact and bisected. Make sure you study both a male and female pelvis. Pg. 104 and 115: Follow the dissector line by line to identify the male and female internal genitalia. CLINICAL CORRELATIONS AND EXERCISES: 1. Why is the uterine artery coiled on the uterus? 2.
