| Notes |
| TA98 footnote | 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.
