Reproductive
Male reproductive organs and ducts.
Overview
BodyParts3D is built on an adult male, so this layer contains the male reproductive organs: the testes, which produce sperm and testosterone, the epididymis where sperm mature, the deferent ducts that carry them to the urethra, the seminal vesicles and prostate that add most of the seminal fluid, and the erectile bodies of the penis.
Functions
- Produce sperm and sex hormones
- Deliver sperm and seminal fluid
Clinical notes
- Benign prostatic enlargement and prostate cancer
- Testicular torsion is a surgical emergency
- Inguinal hernias track along the spermatic cord
