Concerning the uterine tubes: Uterine would obviously be **baarmoeder** and if there are tubes running to/from it then these would be **aar (pl. are)**. Putting them together as one word would not work, however, and I would suggest **are van die baarmoeder**.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Erma : Moeilik om net die woord sonder konteks te vertaal. "Uteriene buise" sluit al 3 buise na /van die uterus in. Die 2 "eierstokke"/"eierleiers"/"Fallopius-buise" en die 3de is die serviks.
