A recess of the urethra formed by a fold of tissue containing the ducts of the bulbourethral glands in male goats, cattle, sheep, and swine was investigated by anatomic dissection. The shape, size, and location of the fold and recess are described, along with their relationship to the ducts of the bulbourethral glands. The fold and recess in male ruminants are compared with those in male swine. Clinicians should be aware of the recess, because it may block the passage of a urethral catheter into the lumen of the bladder. They also should be aware of the possibility of a urethral recess in any animal species that has a fibroelastic-type penis. The fold that creates the recess may function as a check valve to aid in evacuation of the small diameter urethra found associated with that type of penis.
通过解剖研究了雄性山羊、牛、绵羊和猪中由含有尿道球腺导管的组织褶皱形成的尿道隐窝。描述了该褶皱和隐窝的形状、大小和位置，以及它们与尿道球腺导管的关系。将雄性反刍动物的褶皱和隐窝与雄性猪的进行了比较。临床医生应注意该隐窝，因为它可能会阻碍尿道导管进入膀胱腔。他们还应意识到，任何具有纤维弹性型阴茎的动物物种都有可能存在尿道隐窝。形成该隐窝的褶皱可能起到止回阀的作用，有助于排空与该类型阴茎相关的小直径尿道。
