Fallopian tube

Fallopian tubes are paired female oviducts that serve for the passage of the egg into the uterine cavity, and after fertilization, the parietal (interstitial) development of the embryo and its nutrition due to the secreted mucous membrane; The length of the fallopian tubes is about 11 cm. The uterus is adjacent to the side walls of the tubes closer to their ampoules. In newborn girls, the fallopian tube is shaped like the letter C.

They are also called fallopian tubes, but this name is often taken as a disparagement.
