Introduction
Structure
Function
- Providing a physical barrier to the uterus therefore preventing abortion due to infection by isolating the feotus from the external environment.
- Glands in the mucosa of the cervix produce vast quantities of mucous in the Cow and Ewe
Anatomical Boundaries
- Located between the Uterus and the Vagina.
Histology
Vascularisation
- Uterine artery off the Internal Iliac artery (External Iliac artery in the Mare).
