Excerpt from Diseases of the Bladder and Prostate
The bladder is situated in the pelvic cavity where it is protected from external violence by the bony walls of the pelvis. The urine reaches it through the ureters which enter it at the base, one on each side, opening one inch and a quarter apart. The contents of the bladder are discharged through the urethra which opens from the front of its lowest part.
