-Right lung is shorter and wider because it is compressed by the right copula of the diaphragm by
the live .. 2 fissure , 3 lobes .. hilum : 2 bronchi ( ep-arterial , hyp-arterial ) , one artery …
mediastinal surface with venous blood ( svc , ivc )
-Left lung is longer and thinner.. 1 fissure , 2 lobes … 1 bronchi .. mediastinal surface with arterial
blood ( arch of aorta , descending aorta )
Right lung
-fissures:
Oblique fissure : 4 cm to right side on the dorsal surface at the level of t3 or t4 then it descends
obliquely to the 6th rib anteriorly
Horizontal fissure : at the level of the 4th costal cartilage , it passes horizontally to the 6th rib , where
it meet with the oblique fissure
-the 1st rib always makes an impression on the costal surface
-Hilum : pulmonary artery , 2 bronchi , 2 pulmonary veins ( sup. And inf. ) , lymph nodes , bronchial
vessels , autonomic nerves .. sup. Pulmonary vein is above and ant. To the inf. Pulmonary vein
-impressions :
1- SVC
2- IVC
*subclavian artery and vein ( on the sup. Lobe ) , left and right brachiocephalic have impression but
we can't feel it
3- arch of azygos .. the only part of the azygos that can be felt .. other parts are covered by the
esophagus
4- esophagus .. post. To the hilum .. start from the apex
*esophagus at the level of the apex is found in the mid line so it makes an impression on both right
and left side , but then it's deviated to the right so it makes impression on the right lung only
5- 1st rib .. on the ant. Border
6- pericardium covering the right atrium
7- trachea .. from apex to the hilum
Left lung :
-Hilum (between t5 – t7 ) : 1 bronchus , 1 pulmonary artery , 2 pulmonary veins
- it contains cardiac notch ( between 4th costal cartilage and 6th costal cartilage ) , lingual
-mediastinal impressions :
1- 1st rib
2- left brachiocephalic vein
3- left subclavian artery
4- left common carotid artery
5- arch of aorta .. above the hilum
6- descending aorta .. behind the hilum
7- esophagus .. directly behind the hilum .. ant. To the descending aorta
*in the lower half of the thorax it will be deviated from the right side to the left side(cross the
descending aorta anteriorly ) so it can enter it's opening through the diaphragm ( 1 inch to the left
side at T10 )
8- pericardium of the left ventricle
*the brachiocephalic artery between the two lungs so it doesn't make any impression on the lungs.
* the left subclavian is more post to the left common carotid and it's impression is more clear
*vagus nerve , phrenic nerve , pericardiophrenic vessels make impression on both lung but very
small impressions
Pulmonary arteries (left and right ) :
-from the pulmonary truck
- right branch is longer
- in the hilum the left pulmonary artery is above the bronchus , ant. To the sup. Pulmonary vein
-the right pulmonary artery is divides into 2 branches ( upper and lower ) .. sup. Pulmonary vein is
ant. To the lower branch
- bifurcation of the pulmonary trunk at the level of T4 to the left of the mid line.. anteroinferiorly to
the bifurcation of the trachea
- right pulmonary artery relations :
Anterior to the : svc , ascending aorta , right sup. Pulmonary vein
Posterior to the right main bronchus
-left pulmonary artery relation :
Anterior to the descending aorta
Posterior to the sup. Pulmonary vein
Passes through the roof of the left hilum
Pulmonary veins (4 in number ) :
-ant. to the pulmonary arteries
-from the lung to the left atrium
Bronchial arteries :
-gives the nutritive blood supply to the lung , pleura , all lung tissues
- right bronchial artery from the 3rd post. Intercostal artery from the descending aorta
- left bronchial arteries directly from the ant. surface of the thoracic descending aorta
- sup. Left bronchial artery at the level of T5 , and the inf. One inf. To the left bronchus
-the bronchial arteries run on the post. Surfaces of the bronchi and ramify in the lungs to supply
pulmonary tissues
Bronchial veins :
-drains into the pulmonary veins to the left atrium or to the azygos on the right side and hemiazygos
on the left side
Innervations :
-by autonomic nerves
-vagus nerve and sympathetic sup. Cervical ganglia they make ant. and post. Pulmonary plexus ( at
the end of the bronchia ) and esophageal plexus
-ant. plexus is smaller than the post.
- parasympathetic cause bronchoconstricion
Sympathetic cause bronchodilation
-important in spring .. because it can induce allergy to many people which cause asthma
Lymphatic drainage :
-superficial lymphatic plexus which is deep to the pleura , on the surface
-deep lymphatic plexus
-these lymph nodes drain to the trachiobronchial lymph nodes then to the Para-bronchial lymph
nodes then to the brachiocephalic lymph nodes then either to the right lymphatic duct or to the
thoracic duct on the left side , they end at the bifurcation of the internal jugular vein and the
subclavian ( beginning of brachiocephalic vein )
PLEURA :
-visceral and parietal .. in between is a potential space filled with serous fluid for lubrication
-parietal is lining the thoracic wall .. visceral is adherent to the lung tissue
-inflation of the lung will reach the parietal
-inflation mostly happen in the lower surface and lower border which makes filling of the recesses
*surface anatomy of the lung and pleura:
-for apex and ant./post. border is the same
- the difference in the base :
Lung … anteriorly 6th costal cartilage .. mid clavicular 6th costal cartilage .. mid axillary 8th costal
cartilage .. posteriorly 10th
Pleura .. anteriorly 7th CC .. mid clavicular 8th CC .. mid axillary 10th CC .. posteriorly 12th CC
Then there's 2 spaces difference between base of the lung and base of the pleura
Function of the pleura :
1-protection
2-produces fluid for lubrication
Failure to function results in difficult painful breathing-
-Pleuritis .. is inflammation of the parietal pleura .. painful because parietal pleura is sensitive to
pain and touch while visceral pleura is insensitive because it’s supplies by autonomic nervous
system
Pleural cavity :
-pneumothorax : air in the pleural cavity by stabbing the thorax piercing the pleura which will
collapse the lung .. treatment by inflation of the lung and suturing the wound
- pleural effusion : fluid in the pleural cavity .. which can happen spontaneously or by some diseases
that cause lung congestion .. the fluid will go to the recesses ... treatment by aspiration through tube
-empyema : pus in the pleural cavity .. after inflammation like pleuritis
-haemothorax : blood in the pleural cavity .. after stab wound .. treatment aspiration
*names given to the parietal pleura :
1-cervical pleura : covering the apex .. there's membrane superior to this pleura called suprapleural
membrane (Sibson's fascia .. for ceiling the apex of the thoracic cavity , so it conserve the
pressure inside the pleural cavity )
-Closure of the thoracic cavity downward by the diaphragm and upward by the suprapleural
membrane
2-diaphragmatic pleura : above the diaphragm
3- mediastinal pleura : at the mediastinal surface
*visceral and parietal pleura confuse at the mediastinal surface .. and surround the hilum .. makes
the pulmonary ligament
4- costal pleura : at the costal surface
Suprapleural membrane ( Sibson's fascia ) :
*Sibson's fascia is called fascia because it blends with the deep fascia of the root of the lung which
will help the ceiling of the pleural cavity
-it's fibrous sheath
-laterally it's attached to the medial border of the 1st rib and costal cartilage
-medially it blends with the deep fascia ( investing deep fascia ) at the root of the neck
-apex is attached to the tip of the 7th cervical vertebra at the transverse process
-function :
1- it protect the cervical pleura and lung
2- resist changes in intrathoracic pressure during inspiration which means that the apex is sealed
completely
*visceral pleura :
- continuous with the parietal at the hilum
- firmly attached to the surface of the lungs
- supplied by autonomic nerves
*pleural recesses :
- recesses : is the angle at the lower border
- costodiaphragmatic recess : is the angle between the costal surface and the diaphragmatic surface
- costodiaphragmatic recesses is the largest and clinically the most important recess
*relationship of the pleura reflections and the lobes of the lung :
- at the midclavicular line , the recess is between the 6th and the 8th intercostals spaces
- at the midaxillary line , the recess is between the 8th and the 10th intercostals spaces
- at the paravertebral line , the recess is between the 10th and the 12th intercostals spaces
*Costodiaphragmatic recess :
- 1 inch in the midclavicular line
- 2 inches in the scapular line post.
- 3 inches in the midaxillary line
*aspiration of fluid ( pneumothorax , pleural effusion ) from the pleural cavity by putting a needle
through the 7th intercostal space in the midclavicular line or the 9th intercostal space midaxillary line
(best) or postteriorly in the 11th intercostal space .
- the needle should be put in the lower border of the space ( upper border of the rib ) to be away
from the intercostal artery , vein and nerve , because they're found in the costal groove at the lower
border of the rib
*pleural effusion :
- usually the pleural space contain 5-10 ml of clear fluid
- absorbed normally by the visceral pleura
- pleural effusion is the accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity , pleural fluid increases
more than 300 ml in the costodiaphragmatic recess
- it could be increased spontaneously or by infection or injury ( trauma )
- clinical manifestations :
1- decrease in the lung expansion
2- decrease breath sound
3- there's dullness in percussion ( in pleural effusion , empyema , haemothorax but not in
pneumothorax )
4- pain
5- cough
*nerve supply to the pleura :
*parietal pleura : it’s sensitive to pain , temperature , touch
By : 1- intercostal nerves to the costal pleura
2- phrenic nerve to the mediastinal and diaphragmatic pleura
3- lower 6 intercostal nerves to the peripheral pleura
*costal pleura is innervated segmentally which means that the pleura in the 6 th intercostal space is
innervated by 6th intercostal nerve while cervical pleura is innervated by the 1st and 2nd intercostal
nerves.
*visceral pleura :
- is sensitive to stretch only
- supplied by pulmonary plexus
**arterial supply of the pleura :
*parietal pleura from the arteries that supply the thoracic wall :
1- intercostal arteries ( ant & post )
2- internal thoracic
3- musculophrenic arteries
*visceral pleura from the bronchial arteries
** venous drainage of the pleura : into the azygos and internal thoracic veins
** lymphatic drainage of the pleura :
*parietal pleura :
-mediastinal pleura :
1- mediastinal nodes
2- tracheobronchial nodes to parabronchial nodes
3- intercostal nodes
-diaphragmatic pleura :
1- parasternal nodes
2- post. Mediastinal nodes
-all these nodes drains into the thoracic duct or right lymphatic duct
*visceral pleura :
Along the bronchial arteries to the bronchopulmonary nodes.
