The ridge along the midline of the scrotum is the raphe, which is where the two halves of the scrotum fused during development. The septum refers to the dividing wall between two structures, and is not visible externally in the scrotum. The perineum is the area between the scrotum and anus. The tunica albuginea is a fibrous capsule surrounding testis, and the scrotal cord refers to the structures that make up the spermatic cord.
