INTRODUCTION
Required for the survival of the species
Does not become functional until it is turned
on at puberty
The functions of the male reproductive system
are:
Produce the male gametes, spermatozoa
(sper-mat''o-zo'a).
Transfer them to the female through the
process of coitus (sexual intercourse) or
copulation.
Categories of Reproductive
Structures
Primary sex organs.
The primary sex organs are called gonads
testes in the male.
Secondary sex organs.
structures that are essential in caring for and transporting
spermatozoa.
Sperm-transporting ducts, the accessory glands, and the copulatory
organ.
Secondary sex characteristics
body physique, body hair, and voice pitch.
Embrio development of genital
tract
Embrio development of
external genital tract
Descent of testes
MALE PRIMARY SEX ORGAN
(testes with the scrotum)
MALE PRIMARY SEX ORGAN
(testes with the scrotum)
Scrotal septum_Scrotal raphe
Scrotal function : provide stable temperature for
spermatogenesis
Wall of scrotum
External layer of the skin
Thin superficial fascia
Layer of smooth muscle (M. dartos)
Internal fascia
Artery of Pudenda interna, A. pudenda externa, A. cremasteric
Nerve pudenda, N.ilioiguinal and N posterior cutaneous of the
tight
Spermatic cord
Posteriorly, the scrotum contains the spermatic cord
Wall of spermatic cord
Fascia spermatica interna
Muscle and its facia of cremaster
Fascia spermatica externa
Internal spermatic cord consist of
Ductus deferens
N.Testicularis
A.Testicularis
Plexus pampiniformis
Lymphatic vessel
Upward and anteriorly behind the testes, easily palpated
through the skin of the scrotum.
External inguinal ring Vs Internal inguinal ring
MALE PRIMARY SEX ORGAN
(testes with the scrotum)
Testes coverage by tunica vaginalis and tunica albuginea
Weight 10-12 gr; 4x2x2,5 cm
Produce sperm and androgen sex hormone
Septa (T.albugenia) form lobules, consist of up to 4 tubulous
seminiferous
Sertoli cell and germ cell Vs Leydig cell
A. testicularis, plex. Pampiniformis (right to VCI
Left to left renal vein)
N testicularis (T10-T11) mixed sensory_motoric
Predominant symphatic
MALE SECONDARY SEX
ORGAN (THE DUCT)
Ductus within the testes
Rete testes_efferent duct_epididimis
Epididimis : head _tail
Storage and maturation of the sperm
Ductus deferens
Mucosa_muscularis_adventitia
Move the sperm outward
Ejaculatory duct
Goes to prosthatic urethra
Urethra
18 cm long
3 part : prosthatica, membranacea, spongiosa
MALE SECONDARY SEX ORGAN (THE
ACCESORIUS GLAND)
Seminal vesicle
Post to urinary bladder, lateral from ampulla of defferens duct
Yield viscous secrete, whittis yellow fluid
Contain : fructose, PGI, bicarbonate
Prostat gland
Inferior to VU, surround of urethra and ejaculatory duct
Like walnut, 2x3x4 cm, 20 gr
Milky fluid consisit of citric acid, PSA, seminal plasma
Bulbourethral gland
Brownish, sperical gland
Sexual arousal, clear viscous mucin
MALE SECONDARY SEX ORGAN (THE
COPULATORY ORGAN)
Root and the body of penis
Root : bulb and crus
Body : 2 corpora cavernosa (dorsolateral) and 1 corpora
spongiosa
MALE SECONDARY SEX ORGAN (THE
COPULATORY ORGAN)
Superficial external pudendal branch of the femoral artery and
the internal pudendal branch of the internal iliac artery.
The venous return is through a superficial median dorsal vein,
which, the deep median vein.
The penis has many sensory tactile receptors, especially in
the glans penis, making it a highly sensitive organ.
The penis has extensive motor innervation from both
sympathetic and parasympathetic fibers.
