cremaster muscle

The cremaster muscle is a paired structure, there being one on each side of the body.

In males, the cremaster muscle is also attached to the internal oblique.

This causes the cremaster muscle on the same side to rapidly contract, raising that testicle.

In rats, it has been shown that cremaster muscles developed from the gubernacular bulb.

Surgery, including the excision of the cremaster muscle, has apparently been able to provide complete relief from this condition without significant side effects.

In human females, the cremaster muscle is smaller and is found on the round ligament.

The cremaster muscle can reflexively raise each testicle individually if properly triggered.

Its conceptual departure point is the male cremaster muscle, which controls testicular contractions in response to external stimuli.

The cremaster muscle is a muscle that covers the testis and the spermatic cord.

The cremaster muscle occasionally experiences painful spasms or cramps in adult males which can be chronic and debilitating.

It is quite usual for the powerful cremaster muscle to pull the testicles upwards and inwards when the outside temperature is cold.

The cremaster muscle is innervated from the genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve and supplied by the cremasteric artery.

The normal response is an immediate contraction of the cremaster muscle that pulls up the testis on the side stroked (and only on that side).

The medial cremaster muscle, which sometimes is absent, originates from the pubic tubercle and sometimes the lateral pubic crest.

The dartos muscle works in conjunction with the cremaster muscle to elevate the testis but should not be confused with the cremasteric reflex.

The Cremaster Cycle is a cycle of five films which revolve around the genesis of creation and has as conceptual origin the male cremaster muscle.

If you are new to the party, the cremaster muscle lifts a man's testicles up into the body when it's cold and eases them down when conditions are cozier.

Anatomically, the lateral cremaster muscle originates from the internal oblique muscle, just superior to the inguinal canal, and the middle of the inguinal ligament.

The body has compensatory mechanisms, like the cremaster muscle relaxing and letting the testicle hang further away from the warm body, sweating and a countercurrent exchange of blood cooling inflowing blood.

The deeper internal spermatic fascia is deep to the cremaster muscle, directly surrounds the spermatic cord and its contents, and is a continuation of the abdominal transversalis fascia.

Most veterinarians remove the testis held most "tightly" (or close to the body) by the cremaster muscle first, so as to minimize the risk of the horse withdrawing it to the point where it is inaccessible.
