ovarian ligament

Cow- Slightly above to the middle of the pelvic inlet, 2.5-4x2.5x1.5 cm, 15-20 gram), 40-45 cm from vulva

Mare- Below 4-5 lumbar vertebrae, 7-8x3-4 cm, medulla inside, 50-55 cm from vulvaSow- Location as cow, covered in busraBitch- 1-2 cm behind kidney under 3-4 lumbar vertebrae, covered in bursa, slit like oppeningventrally and surrounded by fat

Uterine tubes or oviducts or fallopian tubes or Salpinges

Cow•Length of about 20-25 cm. And diameter about 2 to 3 mm •Infundibulum ampulla isthmus •Infundibulum 20 sq. Cm•Pass lateral to ovary

Mare- 20-30 cm, junction between uterine tube and uterus is abruptBitch- 5-8 cm, fimbria lies in ovarian bursa

Uterus

•Two horns, a short body and cervix pelvic cavity in non-pregnant females or may in abdomen•Rectum above and urinary bladder below •Broad ligament not attached to sublumbar but upper part of flank below tuber caxae•Horn is about 25 to 40 cm in length and 1.5 to 5 cm in width connected by Intercornualligaments•Horn directed downward, foreward, outward, backward forming spiral•Caruncles( ruminants) caruncles are arranged in four rows viz. Two dorsal rows and two ventral rows •Body – 3-4 cm, thicker than horn•Fusion of the uterine horns of the cow, doe and ewe near the uterine body give the impression of a larger uterine body •Blood supply• Utero-ovarian artery - fallopian tubes and anterior part of uterine. Horns.• Middle uterine artery - posterior part of horns and anteriorPart of body of uterus.• Caudal uterine artery - posterior part of body of uterus andAnterior part of vagina.

Cont.Mare

•Abdominal cavity, partially pelvic cavity•Attached to sublumbar region and lateral abdomen•Horn- entierly in abdomen, pressed against lumbar muscle by caecum, colon and intestine•Dorsal border is attached and concave•Ventral boarder is free and convex•Body- flattened dorsoventrally but cylindrical•18-20x10 cm•Cervix- 3.5-4 cm

SowBody is 5 cm and horn is 1.2-1.5 m and coiled like intestineCervix is spiral to arrange penis and continue with vagina

Bitch•Body 2-3 cm and horn is 12-15 cm straight forming v shape toward kidney

Vagina and vilvacow•20-25 cm•Peritoneum dorsally about 12 cm and ventrally only 5 cm•Ventral floor canal of gartner which open at urethral diverticulum

Mare•15-20x10-12 cm, distended, dilatability can only limited by pelvic•Most of part retroperitoneal•Vulva- dorsal commissar 5 cm below anus•Ventral commissar 5 cm below ischial arch. Glans clitoris located in fossa clitoris

Bitch-•Relatively long and thick anterior•Muscular coat is very thick•Vulva has thick labia•Constrictor muscle is strong•Body of clitoris infiltrated with fat and glans clitoris is erectile

Vulva

vestibule and theLabia vestibule is that portion of the female duct system which iscommon to both the reproductive and urinary systems vestibule is extended from the external urethral orifice tothe exterior vestibule is 10-12 cm in length in the cow and mare, halfthat length in the sow and one-quarter that length in the eweand doe homologous to the penile urethra vestibular glands or Bartholiangland hymen (transverse ridge) is located at the junction of vaginaand vestibule which is well defined in the ewe and mare, but illdefined in the cow and sow labia minora is homologous to the prepuce in the male andis not prominent in farm animals labia majora is homologous to the scrotum in the male - isthat portion of the female system which is visible externally
