Lower, narrow portion of the uterus where it joins with the top end of the vagina. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the uterine cervix is

It sits within the reproductive system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

Supply and innervation
