uterus and part of the Fallopian tube
In this laparoscopic photo, provided by Dr. Layyous, we see the uterus and part of the Fallopian tube. These are important female organs involved in pregnancy and fertilization respectively. The uterus is a female hollow muscular organ where the fertilized egg implants and develops into the fetus. This is where the egg normally becomes embedded and the developing embryo and fetus is nourished. The uterus opens into the vagina below and into tubes on both sides. The Fallopian tubes exists on both also called a uetrine tube, is where fertilization occurs. After fertilization, the oocytes (immature female cells) travel in the tubes towards fertilization. Laparoscopic images are derived via the laparoscope, which is a method of monitoring anatomical structures in the abdominal cavity.
