The portion of the bladder wall posterior to the urethral orifice, which is directed in the male towards the anterior wall of the rectum and lies below and in front of the recto-vesical pouch, is called the fundus vesicae or base of the bladder; it is closely- related to the seminal vesicles and ampulla? of the ductus deferentes. The corres- ponding part of the bladder in the female rests against the anterior wall of the vao-ina. The term vertex vesicae, or apex of the bladder, is applied to the portion which lies nearest to the upper border of the symphysis when the organ is empty, and rises high above the pubis into the abdominal cavity when the bladder is distended. Connected with the vertex of the bladder is a fibrous cord, the ligamentum umbilicale medium, or urachus, which passes upwards, in the Area continuous median plane, on the posterior aspect with â¢*â . 1 -i â i n i of the anterior abdominal wall, and reaches the umbilicus. It represents the passage which in the embryo connects the developing bladder with the allantois.
