The bulbospongiosus muscles (in older texts bulbocavernosus and, for female muscle, constrictor cunni) are a subgroup of the superficial muscles of the perineum. [1] They have a slightly different origin, insertion and function in males and females. In males, these muscles cover the bulb of the penis, while in females, they cover the vestibular ...
The deep dorsal vein of the penis, the cavernosal veins of the penis, and the para-arterial veins of the penis are inside Buck's fascia, but the superficial dorsal veins of the penis are in the superficial fascia immediately under the skin.
The bulb of penis is the proximal/posterior bulged [1] end of the (unpaired median) corpus spongiosum penis.Together with the two crura (one crus on each side of the bulb), it constitutes the root of the penis. [2]
The voluntary, pubococcygeus muscle, part of the levator ani muscle partially constricts the vaginal opening. [19] Other muscles of the urogenital triangle support the vulvar area and they include the transverse perineal muscles, the bulbospongiosus, and the ischiocavernosus muscles. [20] The bulbospongiosus muscle decreases the vaginal opening ...
The function of the muscle is fixation of the perineal body (central tendon of perineum), support of the pelvic floor, expulsion of semen in males and last drops of urine in both sexes. [2] The deep transverse perineal muscle lies in the same plane as the urethral sphincter and formerly the two muscles were described together as the constrictor ...

The ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus muscles contract to compress the dorsal vein of the clitoris to stop drainage of the clitoris, trapping the blood. [6] The erectile tissues are composed of endothelium-lined vascular spaces in a trabecular matrix, with the endothelium -lined vascular spaces surrounded by smooth muscle capable of ...
Although the pubococcygeus muscle is commonly thought to be the primary muscle involved in vaginismus, Pacik identified two more spastic muscles in people who were treated under sedation. These include the entry muscle (bulbocavernosum) and the mid-vaginal muscle (puborectalis). Spasm of the entry muscle accounts for the common complaint that ...
