Supply to ovaries
arterial supply
direct branch from abdominal aorta
venous drainage
lymphatic drainage
para-aortic nodes
innervation
- ovarian + pelvic plexuses transmitted within suspensory ligament
- visceral afferent: travels with sympathetic fibres T10-11 (==> radiation to umbilicus)
- parasympathetic supply: S2-4
Radiation of ovary pain to medial thigh is from irritation to obturator nerve
