Perineum
In
human anatomy, the perineum, also called the "taint", "grundel" or "gooch", is generally defined as the surface region in both males and females between the
pubic symphysis and the
coccyx. A diamond-shaped area on the inferior surface of the trunk which includes the
anus and, in females, the
vagina. Its definition varies: it can refer to only the superficial structures in this region, or it can be used to include both superficial and deep structures. The perineum corresponds to the
outlet of the pelvis.
