Abstract

The primary sex organ, the testis, concerned with the manufacture of androgens and spermatozoa, is in continuity with its extra-testicular pathways (the ductuli efferentia, epididymis and ductus deferens), that transmit sperm to the urethra. Also discharging their secretions into the urethra are the more distal secondary sexual organs, the prostate and seminal vesicles, and the periurethral glands (of Littre) and bulbourethral glands (of Cowper) (Fig. 4.1).
