    The document summarizes the histology of the oviduct, which connects the ovary to the uterus. It describes three main regions: the infundibulum, ampulla, and isthmus. The infundibulum has numerous fimbrae and collects eggs from the ovaries. The ampulla is the longest region and site of fertilization, with ciliated columnar epithelium and thin muscularis layer. The isthmus has a thicker muscularis layer and simpler epithelium, regulating the passage of eggs and sperm.
