Yes, women have a meatus, which is the opening at the end of the urethra where urine is expelled from the body. It is located between the clitoris and the vaginal opening.
The frontal sinus opens in the superior nasal meatus.
The passageways are called the inferior meatus, the middle meatus and the superior meatus.
The urethral meatus controls the release of urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. It acts as a sphincter, helping to regulate the flow of urine. The contraction and relaxation of muscles around the meatus help to control the process of urination.
The facial nerve and vestibulocochlear nerve pass through the internal acoustic meatus, which is a small bony canal located in the skull.
External auditory meatus
The plural of meatus is meatuses or meatus - both forms are accepted.
A meatus is a tubular opening or passage in the body.
The external auditory meatus and the external acoustic meatus are two names for the same structure.
The opening of the urethra is the external urethral orifice.
Any passage or opening leading to the interior of the body is known as a meatus. The external opening through which urine passes out of the body is called the urinary meatus.
Yes that's why it is sometimes called the urethral opening
Cystitis is inflammation of the bladder; urethritis is inflammation of the urethra or meatus.
Meatus is the Latin plural. Apparently, meatus or meatuses can be correct in English. "...the plural of meatus remains meatus in Latin or becomes meatuses in English..." Per http://www.dartmouth.edu/~humananatomy/resources/etymology.htm And also some references such as Dorland's state that the plural is also meatus. This appears to be one of those things that is changing over as doctors use it (correctly or incorrectly). Docs say meatuses per my personal experience.
Meatus is the singular. The plural form - which can hardly be necessary - would be meatus ( pronounced with a long last syllable "may-ya-TOOCE") in Latin, or simply meatuses.
The frontal sinus opens in the superior nasal meatus.
The foramen and meatus are not bones. They are bone markings -- each is an opening in a bone.
An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is a tool used to examine internal body structures. An MRI of the internal auditory meatus is an MRI scan used to look for a problem with the nerves supplying the inner ear.
