The epoöphoron lies in the mesosalpinx between the ovary and the uterine tube and consists of a few short tubules the ductuli transversi which converge toward the ovary while their opposite ends open into a rudimentary duct the ductus longitudinalis epoöphori (duct of Gärtner).The ductuli transversi of the epoophoron is a remnant of the tubules of the Wolffian body or mesonephros.This article incorporates text from a public domain edition of Gray’s Anatomy.
