Vienna Genital General

The common genital vein (lat. vena pudenda commūnis) is a branch of the superficial venous network of the penis and scrotum, passing along the posterior edge of the pubic symphysis and accompanying the lower anal hemorrhoidal veins under the skin, flowing through the upper rectal veins into the internal iliac veins. The largest diameter lower (lateral) and upper (medial) gluteal fissures ensure good outflow of blood from the cavernous bodies, and the muscular-fascial canal divides the posterior part of the pelvic wall into two chambers - the spiral (at the seminal tubercle - the bulbospongiosus muscle) and the percutaneous ( at the dorsal surface of the prostate - the external urethral sphincter). The veins of the puboscrotal branch located opposite form an extensive network, and on the inside of the vessel for its bend there is a cavernous sinus, which becomes active only during erection. It branches widely on the scrotum, merging anal-parietally with the anal vein.
