Pathology and treatment of diseases of women . layer containinginternal circular and external longitudinal muscle fibres, and the perito-neal or serous coat. The tubes, after leaving the uterine wall, run in anearly straight line laterally and horizontally to a point about midwaybetween the uterine cornu and the side of the bony pelvis, where theyturn at an almost right angle backward and downward. The fimbriatedextremity is directed downward into the excavatio recto-uterina andcovers and surrounds its corresponding ovary. The upper portion of the TOPOGRAPHY OF THE FEMALE PELVIC ORGANS ligamentum latum, which covers the uterine tube, is termed the mesosal-pinx (see Figs. 2, 3 and 4). The ovary, a flat almond-shaped body, is connected to the uterus withits uterine pole by the ligamentum ovarii proprium, and hangs down atits hilus or mesovarium from the posterior wall of the ligamentum upper or tubal pole is directly connected to the bony pelvis, justexternal to the articulatio sacro-iliaca, by the ligamentum suspensorium. 1.

The fimbriated extremity of the tube andthe tubal pole of the ovary are further united by the ligamentum infun-dibulo-ovaricum, and upon its border runs the fimbria ovarica from thetube to the ovary. The ovary is not covered by peritoneum, but by asingle layer of flat or cuboidal cells, the germinal epithelium. Beneaththis is a thin layer of C3nnective tissue, the tunica albuginea ova
