Archive image from page 702 of The cyclopædia of anatomy and. The cyclopædia of anatomy and physiology cyclopdiaofana05todd Year: 1859 UTERUS — (NORMAL ANATOMY). 627 the substance of the organ. No just concep- tion, however, of the real form or capacity of this interspace can be obtained by examining it with the aid of sections made in one direc- tion only, In order to obtain a correct notion of the form and extent of this cavity, it is desirable first to make a longitudinal section through the centre of the entire organ parallel with its lateral borders. The cavity or interspace is then indicated by a line running from below upwards, and terminating within half an inch of the fundus (fig. 426.). The upper half of this line indicates the cavity of the uterus; the lower half, that of the cervix. The latter alone exhibits a true cavity; for here the parietes of the cervix are Fig. 427. Fig. 428.
