Term:abnormal female urethral gland morphology

Accession:MP:0011793 term browser browse the term
Definition:any structural anomaly of the numerous mucous-secreting glands found in several female mammalian species (including rodents and humans) on the anterior wall of the vagina, around the lower end of the urethra, and possessing a common paraurethral duct which opens (on each side) near the external urethral orifice; they are homologous with the prostate gland in males, have highly variable anatomy, and are believed to be the source of the female ejaculate, a lubricating fluid with a similar consistency to male prostatic fluid that is expelled through the urethra during sexual stimulation; like the male prostate, these glands are susceptible to infection (skenitis), cyst development, and cancer
Synonyms:exact_synonym: abnormal Guerin gland morphology;   abnormal Schueller's gland morphology;   abnormal Skene gland morphology;   abnormal Skene's gland morphology;   abnormal U-spot morphology;   abnormal female prostate morphology;   abnormal glandula vestibulares minor morphology;   abnormal lesser vestibular gland morphology;   abnormal para-urethral gland morphology;   abnormal paraurethral gland morphology;   abnormal periurethral gland morphology
 broad_synonym: abnormal glands of the female urethra;   abnormal glandulae urethrales femininae
