. The comparative anatomy of the domesticated animals. Veterinary anatomy. 888 TBE APPABATUS OF GENERATION. COMPABISON OF THE GENEKATIVE OBQANS OF â WOMAN 'WITH THOSE OF ANIMALS. Ovaries.âThese organs are oval, about 1| inches long and S-lOths of an inch broad, and are lodged in the posterior layer of the broad ligaments. They are attached to the uterus by the ligament of the ovary, and united to the Fallopian tubes by the Fallopio- ovarian ligament. Their structure is the same as in animals. A Graafian vesicle usually ripens every month; its rupture corresponds with the menstrual period. Annexed to the human ovary is found the organ of Bosenmiiller, composed of from fifteen to twenty tortuous tubes opening into a transverse branch; these tubes are lined by ciliated epithelium, and filled with a yellow fluid ; they form a closed system included in the broad ligament, between the ovary and oviduct. Oviduct.âPlaced at the upper border of the broad ligament, it is nearly straight, and terminates by a pavilion notched into about fifteen unequal fringes. Uterus.âThe human uterus is situated between, the bladder and rectum, being inclined Fig. UTERUS WITH ITS APPENDAGES, VIEWED FKOM THE FRONT. 1, Body of the uterus; 2, Fundus; 3, Cervix; 4, Os uteri; 5, Vagina, with its columna and transverse ruga;; 6, 6, Broad ligament of the uterus; 7, Convexity of the broad ligament formed by the ovary; 8, 8, Round ligaments of the uterus; 9, 9, Fallopian tubes: 10, 10, Their fimbriated extremities; 11, Ovary; 12, Utero-ovarian ligament; 13, Fallopio-ovarian ligament; 14, Peritoneum of anterior surface of uterus; it is removed at the left side, but on the right is continuous with the anterior layer of the broad ligament. slightly downwards, from before to behind. Its form is very different from the uterus of the animals we have described, being that of a flattened gourd; its volume varies with age and the number of gestations; it weighs about two ounces. It is described as ha
