Infundibulum – funnel-shaped opening near the ovary to which fimbriae are attached Ampulla – widest section of the uterine tubes Fertilization usually occurs here Isthmus – narrow section of the uterine tubes connecting the ampulla to the uterine cavity

The infundibulum, which is the distal end of the tube It is funnel shaped and opens into the peritoneal cavity at the abdominal ostium Finger like mucosal projections are attached to the distal end of the infundibulum and are referred to as fimbriae These fimbriae are 1 mm wide and project over the medial surface of the ovaries

It has four described parts: the intramural part, isthmus, ampulla, and infundibulum with associated fimbriae Each tube has two openings: a proximal opening nearest to the uterus, and a distal opening nearest to the ovary The fallopian tubes are held in place by the mesosalpinx, a part of the broad ligament mesentery that wraps around the tubes

The isthmus is adjacent to the uterine part Lateral to the isthmus is the ampulla, the most common site of fertilization Most distal from the uterus, the infundibulum ends at an abdominal ostium opening up into the peritoneal cavity and fimbriae, which catch the released oocyte during each menstrual cycle

The Fallopian tubes are muscular conduits connecting the ovaries with the uterus and are divided into the following regions: fimbriated infundibulum, ampulla and isthmus At puberty, the extra-uterine portion of the tube measures approximately 11cm and the intra-mural portion is 1 5-2cm long, these dimensions are concealed by the convolutions

The isthmus refers to the narrow inner medial third of fallopian tube, between ampulla and uterotubal junction The infundibulum is a Funnel-shaped section of the fallopian tube, between fimbriae and ampulla (out-to-in ie lateral-to-medial; fimbriae, ampulla, isthmus, uterotubal junction, ostium) Physiology
- Define infundibulum, isthmus, ampulla and ectopic pregnancy.
Infundibulum: This part is closer to the Ovary and is funnel- shaped Its edges possess finger-like projections called fimbriae, which are the collection of the ovum after ovulation It led to the wider part called the ampulla Isthmus: The last part of the oviduct and has a narrow lumen and joins the uterus The oviduct is ciliated
