| This passes through corpora spongiosum: | urethra |
| Cavernosa | connection between cavity of penis and a vein |
| Cavernosography | Radiography of a cavity |
| Chordee | condition resulting in penis being bent downward |
| Corpora Cavernosa | two cavities of penis |
| Epididymis | tube located at the top of testes that stores sperm |
| Epididymovasostomy | creation of a new connection between vas deferens and epididymis |
| Meatotomy | surgical enlargement of opening of urinary meatus |
| Orchiectomy | castration - removal of testes |
| Orchiopexy | surgical procedure to release undescended testis and fixate within scrotum |
| Penoscrotal | referring to penis and scrotum |
| Plethysmography | determining changes in volume of an organ part or body |
| Priapism | painful condition in which penis is constantly erect |
| Prostatotomy | incision into prostate |
| Transurethral resection, prostate | procedure performed through urethra by means of a cystoscopy to remove part or all of prostate |
| Tumescence | state of being swollen |
| Tunica vaginalis | covering of testes |
| Varicocele | swelling of a scrotal vein |
| Vas Deferens | tube that carries sperm from epididymis to ejaculatory duct and seminal vesciles |
| Vasectomy | removal of a segment of vas deferens |
| Vasogram | recording of flow in vas deferens |
| Vasovasostomy | reversal of a vasectomy |
| Vesiculectomy | excision of a seminal vesicle |

| 2 types of infectious urethritis: | gonococcal, nongonococcal |
| Balanitis | inflammation of glans penis |
| Phimosis | prepuce (foreskin) becomes constricted, cannot be retracted over glans penis |
| Paraphimosis | prepuce (foreskin) becomes constricted, is retracted over glans penis and cannot be moved forward |
| Peyronie's Disease | bent nail syndrome - lateral curvature of penis during erection |
| Bowen's Disease is the common name for: | intraepithelial neoplasia (tumor under the prepuce) |
| BPH | Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia/Hypertrophy - mutliple fibroadenomatous nodules |
| The most commonly diagnosed malignancy in men over 60: | prostate cancer |
| Accessory organs of the male genital system: | penis, scrotum, seminal vesicles, prostate, Cowper's gland |
