this is an eponym for the greater vestibular glands(vulvovaginal glands). therse glands are homologous to bulbourethral glands of Cowper in males.

in females it is located in the superficial perineal pouch deep to bulbs of vestibule. duct of each gland (2cm long) opens at the side of hymen.

the inflammation of these glands leads to Bartholin cyst.
