Prostate calculi in cancer and BPH in a cohort of Korean men: presence of calculi did not correlate with cancer risk Prostatic calculi are common and are associated with inflammation of the prostate. Recently, it has been suggested that this inflammation may be associated with prostate carcinogenesis.

- Benign prostatic hyperplasia. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also called benign enlargement of the prostate (BEP or BPE), is a noncancerous increase in size of the prostate. BPH involves hyperplasia of prostatic stromal and epithelial cells, resulting in the formation of large, fairly discrete nodules in the transition zone of the prostate.

Sialolithiasis From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Sialolithiasis (also termed salivary calculi, or salivary stones), is a condition where a calcified mass or sialolith forms within a salivary gland, usually in the duct of the submandibular gland (also termed  Wharton's duct ).hey are usually made from mineral salts, and other types of calculi include tonsiloliths (tonsil stones) and renal calculi (kidney stones). Sialolithiasis refers to the formation of calculi within a salivary gland.

(castration surgery) : this file contains pictures that may be distressing for people. The reproductive organs of the male rabbit are very similar to that of other mammals, except for the additional ability to retract the testis in the abdomen. They are formed during the embryonic phase.They derive from primitive ancestors of the kidney tubules and the ducts, except for the lobules of the testes and the vasa recta. The blood vessels of the kidney will furthermore be used and deviated in order to supply the testes and the scrotal wall with blood.estes: they are the reproductive gland, which is composed of tubular loops, lobules and a central tubular plexus (vasa recta). The tubular lobules are lined with cells that develop the sperm, through a process of cell divisions (meiosis) and maturation.

15 Best Prostate Massagers â Toys For The Modern Man Prostate massagers, also known as plugs, anal dildos, and P or male G-spot massagers are men’s anal sex toys which were developed from medical instruments used to stimulate the prostate gland. The prostate gland itself is the organ which produces fluid that carries and protects sperm. It’s located a few inches inside the anus, and although it can feel good when stimulated, it can be difficult to reach with fingers. Prostate massagers have been developed so you can reach your prostate with ease. When used well, the stimulation they provide can lead to a non-ejaculatory orgasm, a prostate orgasm, which most guys call the ‘Super O’. It’s widely accepted this is the most amazing feeling on Earth.

Seminal vesicle The seminal vesicles are a pair of glands that are positioned below the urinary bladder and lateral to the vas deferens. Each vesicle consists of a single tube folded and coiled on itself, with occasional diverticula in its wall.bout 70-85% of the seminal fluid in humans originates from the seminal vesicles, but is not expelled in the first ejaculate fractions which are dominated by spermatozoa and zinc-rich prostatic fluid.

Semen combines fluid elements from the epididymis, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and vas deferens.Each body part plays a key role in semen production.The fluids help the sperm swim towards the egg and keep the sperm nourished during the transit process.he fluid also has clotting properties that make the semen sticky. This ensures that the semen clings inside the vagina long enough for the sperm to travel to the egg. Pain in the lower left section of the abdomen is an indicator that the seminal vesicle is inflamed.

The Male Reproductive System (Structure and Function) (Nursing) Part 2 Seminal Vesicles. The two seminal vesicles are convoluted, sac-shaped glands about 2 inches (5 cm) long, which are located posterior to the urinary bladder. They secrete a sticky, alkaline, yellowish substance, called semen, which serves as a fluid medium for sperm. Seminal vesicles secrete about 60% of all of a man’s semen.

What Is a Trabeculae? 10 most extreme places on Earth. Trabeculae is the plural form of trabecula, which means small beam or small wood plank in Latin to describe a certain tissue structure. The term is meant to be the smaller form of the Latin word trabes, thus denoting its most common function — support. Trabeculae, also described as rods or struts, can be found in certain areas of the body, which include the bones, the penis, the heart and the eyes.

Picture of the Prostate Side View of the Prostate. The prostate is a walnut-sized gland located between the bladder and the penis. The prostate is just in front of the rectum. The urethra runs through the center of the prostate, from the bladder to the penis, letting urine flow out of the body. The prostate secretes fluid that nourishes and protects sperm. During ejaculation, the prostate squeezes this fluid into the urethra, and it's expelled with sperm as semen. The vasa deferentia (singular: vas deferens) bring sperm from the testes to the seminal vesicles. The seminal vesicles contribute fluid to semen during ejaculation. Image Source: © 2009 WebMD, LLC.

Sperm release pathway The key male reproductive organs include the testes, epididymis, urethra, vas deferens, prostate gland, seminal vesicle, and penis. The testes are composed of coiled structures called seminiferous tubules, which are the sites of sperm production. The structure on top of the seminiferous tubules in the testes is the epididymis. The sperm migrate from of the seminiferous tubules to the epididymis. Within the epididymis, the sperm mature while they are stored in this structure. The ejaculation process begins as the penis fills with blood and becomes erect.

- Prostate secretion is called semen. It is a fluid with a milky appearance and helps to nourish and carry the sperm via penis (from testicles) during ejaculation. Prostatic secretion actually mixes with semen. The secretion liquefies the semen to allow it move through the penis during ejaculation.

Prostatitis - A Patient's Guide The prostate is a gland about the size and shape of a walnut. It is situated just underneath the urinary bladder (just under bladder neck) and surrounds a portion of urethra (prostatic urethra). The urethra is a tube that allows the passage of urine from the bladder through the penis when you pee.
