In most cases the arteries are said, to open into the venous spaces, through the intervention of capillaries, but a few of the smaller arteries are stated to communicate directly with the cavernous veins. The blood is carried away by two sets of veins, the one set uniting to form the dorsal vein, and the other communicating with the prostatic plexus and the pudendal Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marshall, F.
