The caudal pole of the ovary is joined to the uterus by its round ligament. The round ligament of the uterus, corresponding to the gubernaculum testis of the male, passes from the brim of the pelvis, where it is attached to the horn of the uterus, almost straight to the internal inguinal opening and assists in the descent of the ovary and tube. By full time the ovary lies at the brim of the pelvis or partly within it; after birth the ovary, uterus and rectum come gradu- ally to occupy their adult positions within the pelvis. This is due to a relatively greater growth in the pelvis itself than in its contents. The ovary, as is more frequently the case with the testicle, may be arrested in its descent. In Fig. 6 0 an earlier stage is shown; it represents on section the condition about the end of the second month. The ovary and tube with the remnants of the Wolffian body and duct.
