Notes
TA98 footnote 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.
