ACCESSORY SLIP OF ORIGIN OF CREMASTER MUSCLE. RVE FILAMENTS SPERMATIC EXUS Fig. 1141.—The scrotum. The penis has been turned upward, and the anterior wall of the scrotum has been removed. On the right side, the spermatic cord, the jnfundibuliform fascia, and the Cremaster muscle are dis- played; on the left side, the infundibuliform fascia has been divided by a longitudinal incision passing along the front of the cord and the testicle, and a portion of the parietal layer of the tunica vaginalis has been removed to disjjlay the testicle and a portion of the head of "the epididymis, which are covered by the visceral layer of the tunica vaginalis. (Toldt.) The dartos {tunica dartos) (Figs. 1140 and 1142) is a thin layer of loose vascular tissue, containing smooth muscle tissue, but no fat; it forms the proper tunic of the scrotum, is continuous around the base of the scrotum, with the two layers of the superficial fascia of the groin and perineum, and sends inward a distinct mesal septum, the septum of the scrotum {septum scroti) (Fig. 1140), which dn'ides it into two cavities for the two testes, the septum extending between the raph^ and the under surface of the penis as far as its 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 Gray, Henry, 1825
