The shaded area indicates theamount of skin excised around the perineal mucous membrane. Note that the skin adjacentto the upper fourth of the mucous membrane is not disturbed, as otherwise undue narrow-ing of the urethra would follow.

Between these two lines, A A and BB, there is an area ofskin, broad behind and gradually narrowing anteriorly, that is to beremoved, lea
