A manual of anatomy . ached to the sym-physis pubis; it is the suspensory ligament {ligamentiim suspensoriumpenis) of the penis. Between the capsule and the corpora cavernosalie the dorsal vein and dorsal arteries of the penis. The arteries that supply the penis are deep dorsal arteries and theartery to the bulb. The veins empty into the prostatic plexus or intothe dorsal vein. The nerves are from the pudenal nerve and hypogastric andpelvic plexuses of the sympathetic system. CHAPTER XTHE FEMALE ORGANS OF REPRODUCTION The female organs consist of the two ovaries, two oviducts, uterus,vagina, internally, and the two glands of Bartholin, the vestibule,clitoris, hymen, two labia minora and two labia majora and monsveneris, externally. The ovaries he at the side of the pelvic cavity in a little depressioncalled the ovarian fossa (fossa ovarica). They lie behind the broadligament of the uterus and are attached thereto. Each organ isabout lyi inches ( cm.) long, ^ inch (18 mm.) wide and M inch Fundus Isthmus. Ampulla Fimbriated extremityOvary Utero-ovarian ligament Fig. 242.—Dorsal view of the uterus and broad ligament showing oviducts and ovary. (From a photograph.) (8 mm.) thick. It weighs about 4 to 8 grams. Each presents twosurfaces, two borders and Xwo poles. The long axis is directed down-ward (caudad) and medially. The pelvic, or lateral (fades lateralis) and visceral, or medial sur-faces (fades medialis) are convex and nodular; the latter condition isdue to the projecting Graafian foUicles, between the age of pubertyand the menopause. The dorsal border (margo liber) is convex andfree. The ventral border (margo mesovaricus) is not free and repre-sents the attached border; it is connected to the broad ligament by adouble sheet of peritoneum, the mesovarium. The superior, ortubal pole (extremitas tubaria) is rounded and covered by the fim- 330 THE OVIDUCTS 331 briated extremity of the oviduct; one of the largest fimbriae isattached to the ovary and is called th
