The uterine pedicle contains the uterine artery, uterine vein, and uterine ligaments that attach the uterus to surrounding structures. It is an essential structure for providing blood supply and support to the uterus.
Uterine horns are part of the uterus in some animals, such as rodents and ungulates, allowing for increased space for developing fetuses. They provide a larger surface area for implantation of fertilized eggs and support pregnancy by accommodating growing embryos.
Uterine horns are where the uterus and the fallopian tubes meet. They allow the egg cells (ova) to reach the uterus. They are one of the points of attachment for the round ligament of uterus. The other attachment point for that ligament is the mons pubis. In cats, the uterine horns are far more prominent than they are in humans. In the cat, implantation of the embryo occurs in one of the two uterine horns, not the body of the uterus itself.
