urethral meatus of clitoral urethra
EMAPA:36453
The urethral meatus of clitoral urethra (syn: urethral opening of clitoral urethra, distal urethral opening of female) (TS:27-TS:28) is the opening of the clitoral urethra, located within the clitoris. The clitoral urethra is open proximally at the proximal urethral meatus (present to P7) (syn: proximal urethral opening of female or urethral duct) located at the base of the clitoris. The proximal urethral meatus closes after birth (closed by P8). In adults and from birth, the urethra of female is open externally at the urethral meatus of clitoral urethra (syn: distal urethral opening of female) which is anatomically located within the clitoris. (This is different to humans, where the urethral opening is located between the clitoris and vagina).
