What are the four different parts of the male urethra?

The male urethra is divided into four parts: the prostatic urethra, which runs through the prostate gland; the membranous urethra, the shortest segment that passes through the urogenital diaphragm; the spongy (or penile) urethra, which runs through the penis and is surrounded by erectile tissue; and the external urethral orifice, where urine and semen are expelled from the body. Each segment has distinct anatomical features and functions.


What is the membranous urethra?

The membranous urethra is a segment of the male urethra that extends from the prostatic urethra to the bulbous urethra. It is approximately 1-2 centimeters long and passes through the urogenital diaphragm, which contains the external urethral sphincter. This section is relatively narrow and is more susceptible to injury compared to other parts of the urethra, making it clinically significant in trauma cases. In females, the urethra is shorter and does not have a distinct membranous section.
