Gartner's duct is a potential embryological remnant in human female development of the mesonephric ducts. The paired mesonephric ducts in the male go on to form the ductus deferens and ejaculatory duct. In the female they may persist between the layers of the broad ligament of the uterus and in the wall of the vagina. These may give rise to Gartner's duct cysts.
