Seminal vesicle

The single gland forming each seminal vesicle is highly convoluted, so a section through the gland reveals multiple profiles. The seminal vesicle is most easily identified by its central lumen that has been partitioned by the arcading of its mucosal folds. Smooth muscle surrounds the seminal vesicle. 40x
