The spermatic cord in males suspends the testes and contains several important structures: Testicular arteries: Supply the testes, epididymis, and ureters, originating from the abdominal aorta. Pampiniform plexus: A venous network that drains into the testicular veins, which then lead to the inferior vena cava (right side) or renal vein (left side). Testicular lymph vessels: Drain the testes into specific lymph nodes (lateral caval/precaval nodes on the right, lateral aortic/preaortic nodes on the left). Deferent duct (ductus deferens): Transports sperm from the epididymis to the prostatic urethra during ejaculation, mixing sperm with seminal fluids to form semen. The spermatic cord is encased in three layers—internal spermatic fascia, cremaster muscle, and external spermatic fascia—which allow for mobility and temperature regulation of the testes. The cremaster muscle can elevate or lower the scrotum for temperature control. Video credit 📸- Thanks to "@completeanatomyelsevier " ❤️ Follow @world_of_medics and learn daily
