A09.1.01.013 Folliculi ovarici vesiculosi A typographical error in the published book (Thieme 1998) was corrected by replacing "follicle" with "follicles" in the English equivalent term.
A09.1.01.018 Lig. suspensorium ovarii The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the female gender symbol in both entries.
A09.1.03.013 Ostium histologicum uteri internum The histological internal os is the lower limit of the isthmus uteri and can be recognized with the unaided eye: above endometrium is present that undergoes menstrual changes; below cervical mucosa is present that does not. Frankl O. 1933. "On the Physiology and Pathology of the Isthmus Uteri." J Obstet Gynecol Br Commonw. 40: 397-422.
A09.2.01.011 Vestibulum vaginae A typographical error in the published book (Thieme 1998) was corrected by decreasing the last digit of the printed TA code (A09.2.01.012) by one.
A04.5.02.019 Lig. suspensorium clitoridis The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the male gender symbol in both entries.
A04.5.02.023 Lig. fundiforme clitoridis The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the female gender symbol in both entries.
A08.3.01.028 Ostium urethrae internum In the published book (Thieme 1998), one entry, listed under urethra masculina in chapter 09 had a reference TA code (A08.3.01.028) that did not appear in the expected position in chapter 08. The missing entity in chapter 08, which has been restored, was the ostium internae of the urethra feminina, the female homologue of the ostium internae of the urethra masculina. Because both entities have the same name in Terminologia Anatomica, gender symbols were added to distinguish between the two entities.
A08.3.01.028 Ostium urethrae internum This term describes the opening of the urethra from the bladder. However, superimposed lateral cystograms and voiding cystourethrograms show that the ostium in the bladder that is filling differs from the ostium in the bladder that is voiding. The bladder around the ostium urethrae accipiens usually forms a flat disc or baseplate, the pars intramuralis urethrae (bladder neck) is closed and the urethra is at its longest. With the onset of voiding the baseplate becomes progressively funnel-shaped and the bladder neck opens and becomes incorporated into the funnel so that the bladder appears to descend and the urethra to shorten. The ostium urethrae internum evacuans then lies some 20% closer to the ostium urethrae externum in the female, and at the basis prostatae in the male.
A09.2.03.006 M. sphincter urethrae externus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the female gender symbol in both entries.
A09.2.03.009 M. sphincter urethrae internus The Latin precursor sphincter urethrae internus was corrected by restoring the missing noun musculus.
A09.3.06.001 Glandula vesiculosa This term should be used instead of vesicula seminalis because the organ is not a reservoir for semen, but a gland secreting a substantial part of seminal plasma.
A09.3.08.001 Prostata The term glandula prostatica has been omitted because the prostate is more than its glandular part which comprises only about two-thirds of the tissue inside the prostatic capsule.
A09.3.08.010 Lobi prostatae The Latin precursor lobi prostatae dexter et sinister, and the English equivalent, contained a conjunction, which is not compatible with the rules of Regular Anatomical Terminology.
A09.3.08.011 Lobuli prostatae Within each lobe of the prostate, four lobules are defined by the arrangement of ducts and connective tissue and may be distinguished with the unaided eye. The combined inferoposterior/inferolateral lobules, the superomedial lobules and the anteromedial lobules correspond to the histological entities of McNeal [1988. Am J Surg Pathol 12: 619-633], and widely called after his usage, peripheral, central and transition zones respectively. A technique for the gross dissection of the inferoposterior, inferolateral and combined superomedial/anteromedial lobules was described by Tisell and Salander [1975. Scand J Urol Nephrol 9: 185-191 1975]. The inferoposterior and inferolateral lobules, together with the commissure, form a hollow cone within which the superomedial lobes surround the ejaculatory ducts and the anteromedial lobes flank the proximal urethra.

A04.5.04.005 M. puboprostaticus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the official Latin and English synonyms (m. levator prostatae and levator prostatae), and the male gender symbol in both entries.
A08.3.01.021 M. vesicoprostaticus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the male gender symbol in both entries.
A09.3.08.021 Area trapezoidea A hyperechoic area found distal to the prostate, bounded superiorly by the m. rectoperinealis applied to the prostate, anteriorly by the pars intermedia urethrae, inferiorly by the m. anoperinealis and posteriorly by the anorectal flexure.
A04.5.02.019 Lig. suspensorium penis The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the female gender symbol in both entries.
A04.5.02.023 Lig. fundiforme penis The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the male gender symbol in both entries.
A08.3.01.027 Ostium urethrae internum This term describes the opening of the urethra from the bladder. However, superimposed lateral cystograms and voiding cystourethrograms show that the ostium in the bladder that is filling differs from the ostium in the bladder that is voiding. The bladder around the ostium urethrae accipiens usually forms a flat disc or baseplate, the pars intramuralis urethrae (bladder neck) is closed and the urethra is at its longest. With the onset of voiding the baseplate becomes progressively funnel-shaped and the bladder neck opens and becomes incorporated into the funnel so that the bladder appears to descend and the urethra to shorten. The ostium urethrae internum evacuans then lies some 20% closer to the ostium urethrae externum in the female, and at the basis prostatae in the male.
A08.3.01.027 Ostium urethrae internum The two entries for this entity were made identical by adding the English synonym internal urinary meatus to the entry that did not already have it.
A09.4.02.016 M. sphincter urethrae externus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the male gender symbol in both entries.
A09.4.02.017 Pars intermedia With the abandonment of the term urogenital disphragm, pars membranacea has become a misnomer, it being the part between the pars prostatica urethrae and the pars spongiosa urethrae and not just the part passing through the membrana perinealis. The isthmus urethrae extends between the membrana perinealis and the distal end of the colliculus seminalis that may be 0-1 cm above the apex of the prostate. Myers R. P. 1991. "Male Urethral Sphincteric Anatomy and Radical Prostatectomy." Urol Clin North Am 18: 211-227.
A09.5.00.001 Perineum This term, like the term fascia, has been used in different ways in different languages and circumstances. In its most restricted sense, and in obstetrics, it has equated with perineal body; in an intermediate sense it has included only superficial structures within anal and urogenital triangles; in its widest sense, as used here, it includes all structures within those triangles, extending deeply as far as the inferior fascia of the pelvic diaphragm that separates it from pelvic cavity.
A09.5.00.005 Corpus perineale Tendineum has been omitted from the alternative centrum perinei: the perineal body is fibromuscular rather than tendinous and quite unlike the centrum tendineum of the diaphragm.
A04.5.04.016 Corpus anococcygeum The term corpus, rather than ligamentum, has been used here because it is a stratified nonligamentous structure in which fleshy muscle attachments underlie a tendon.
A09.5.01.001 Saccus subcutaneus perinei/compartimentum superficiale perinei/recessus profundus perinei The subcutaneous perineal pouch is a potential space between the membranous layer of perineal subcutaneous tissue and the superficial layer of the investing fascia of perineal muscles. Extravasations or collections in the subcutaneous pouch may track, deep to the membranous layer of subcutaneous tissue, into the anterior abdominal wall, along the clitoris/penis and/or into the labia or scrotum. The superficial pouch is a fully enclosed compartment, being bounded below by the perineal fascia (the superficial layer of the investing fascia of the superficial perineal muscles) and above by the perineal membrane. The deep perineal pouch, on the other hand, is not an enclosed compartment but is open above. This and the deep urogenital muscles are bounded below by the perineal membrane but extend up into the pelvis rendering the old terms diaphragma urogenitalis and fascia diaphragmatis urogenitale inferior misnomers. Oelrich T. M. 1980. "The Urethral Sphincter in the Male." Am J Anat 158: 229-264; Oelrich T. M. 1983. "The Striated Urogenital Sphincter in the Female." Anat Rec 205: 223-232; Roberts W. H., Habenicht J., Krishingner G. 1954. "The Pelvic and Perineal Fasciae and their Neural and Vascular Relationships." Anat Rec 149: 707-720.
A09.5.02.001 Saccus subcutaneus perinei/compartimentum superficiale perinei/recessus profundus perinei The subcutaneous perineal pouch is a potential space between the membranous layer of perineal subcutaneous tissue and the superficial layer of the investing fascia of perineal muscles.

H., Habenicht J., Krishingner G. 1954. "The Pelvic and Perineal Fasciae and their Neural and Vascular Relationships." Anat Rec 149: 707-720.
A09.5.02.003 M. transversus superficialis perinei The original source term contains an inversion between a genitive complement and an adjective, which is not compatible with the rules of Regular Anatomical Terminology.
A09.5.03.001 Saccus subcutaneus perinei/compartimentum superficiale perinei/recessus profundus perinei The subcutaneous perineal pouch is a potential space between the membranous layer of perineal subcutaneous tissue and the superficial layer of the investing fascia of perineal muscles. Extravasations or collections in the subcutaneous pouch may track, deep to the membranous layer of subcutaneous tissue, into the anterior abdominal wall, along the clitoris/penis and/or into the labia or scrotum. The superficial pouch is a fully enclosed compartment, being bounded below by the perineal fascia (the superficial layer of the investing fascia of the superficial perineal muscles) and above by the perineal membrane.

H., Habenicht J., Krishingner G. 1954. "The Pelvic and Perineal Fasciae and their Neural and Vascular Relationships." Anat Rec 149: 707-720.
A09.5.03.003 Lig. transversum perinei There is no transverse perineal ligament as such in the female. Milley P. S., Nichols D. H. 1971. "The Relationship Between the Pubourethral Ligament and the Urogenital Diaphragm in the Human Female." Anat Rec 170: 281-284.
A09.5.03.004 M. transversus perinei profundus ♂ m. compressor urethrae ♀ / m. sphincter urethrovaginalis ♀ The male symbol appears after m. transversus perinei profundus because in the female this muscle is represented only by smooth muscle. The female muscles are a part of the urogenital sphincter described by Oelrich T. M. 1983. "The Striated Urogenital Sphincter in the Human Female." Anat Rec 205: 223-232.
A09.4.02.016 M. sphincter urethrae externus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the male gender symbol in both entries.
A09.2.03.006 M. sphincter urethrae externus The two entries for this entity were made identical by using the female gender symbol in both entries.
A09.5.03.005 M. transversus perinei profundus ♂ m. compressor urethrae ♀ / m. sphincter urethrovaginalis ♀ The male symbol appears after m. transversus perinei profundus because in the female this muscle is represented only by smooth muscle. The female muscles are a part of the urogenital sphincter described by Oelrich T. M. 1983. "The Striated Urogenital Sphincter in the Human Female." Anat Rec 205: 223-232.
