Müllerian ducts (or paramesonephric ducts) are paired ducts of the embryo that run down the lateral sides of the urogenital ridge and terminate at the Müllerian eminence in the primitive urogenital sinus. In the female they will develop to form the Fallopian tubes uterus cervix and the upper two-third of the vagina; in the male they are lost. These ducts are made of tissue of mesodermal origin.
