Male pelvic region. Artwork of a sagittal section through the male pelvic region, with the front of the body at left. At upper right is the lower part of the spine. To the left of that is the rectum (red), the final part of the digestive system where faeces are stored before evacuation via the anus. At centre left is the bladder (red), with the urethra leading down from the bladder through the prostate gland (pink) to the base of the penis (blue). This is the part of the urinary and genital systems, with urine stored in the bladder from the kidneys (not shown) before removal via the urethra. The prostate gland forms part of the male reproductive system.
