Although the Fallopian tube bears to the ovary the relationship of an excretory duct, in that it conveys away the ova, it differs from all other excretory ducts in not having its lumen closely continuous with the interior of the gland whose secretion it conveys. Moreover, this discon-. Fm. 52. Right Ovary and Fallopian Tube. 1. Fallopian tube; 2. Abdominal opening (fimbriated extremity) of the same; 3.

Structure of the Tube. The wall of the oviduct comprises the following layers, enumerated from without inwards, viz., (1) an outer serous coat, derived from the broad ligament; (2) a coat of non-striped muscular tissue, arranged as an outer longitudinal and an inner circular set of fibres ; (3) a submucous coat of vascular connective-tissue; (4) a mucous coat, having a ciliated columnar epithelium. The lumen of the tube is narrowest at its uterine extremity and widest at the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original McFadyean, Jo
