The bulbo-urethral glands (see Fig. 5.47A), one on each side, are small, pea-shaped mucous glands situated within the deep perineal pouch. They are lateral to the membranous part of the urethra. The duct from each gland passes inferomedially through the perineal membrane, to open into the bulb of the spongy urethra at the root of the penis.
