right superior lobar bronchus passes superior to the right pulmonary artery

cartilage

rings of cartilage are discontinous and keep trachea opened -as you move further down they become rings to patches -at bronchioles there's not more cartilage

pulmonary plexuses

-spread of nerves in the lung that receive innervation from the Autonomic nervous system-> Sympathetic (fight or flight) sympathetic trunk (2nd to 5th thoracic ganglia) and Parasympathetic ( rest and digest) : VAGUS NERVE (cause bronchial muscle to contract)

pulmonary circulation

1) all blood passes thru the lungs for gas exchange -deox blood pumps from the R ventricle to the lungs thru a pulmonary trunk that divides into R and L pulmonary arteries -O2 blood carried back to the heart from pulmonary veins entering left atrium 2) arterial blood supply lung tissue through bronchial arteries arising from the thoracic aorta (L) or intercostal arteries (R)

anterior, posterior, inferior borders of the lungs

Anatomically, the lung has an apex, three borders, and three surfaces. The apex lies above the first rib. The three borders include the anterior, posterior, and inferior borders. The anterior border of the lung corresponds to the pleural reflection, and it creates a cardiac notch in the left lung. The cardiac notch is a concavity in the lung that formes to accommodate the heart. The inferior border is thin and separates the base of the lung from the costal surface. The posterior border is thick and extends from the C7 to the T10 vertebra, which is also from the apex of the lung to the inferior border.

Lymphatic drainage of lungs

HILAR LYMPH NODES drain this will eventually drain back into the subclavian vein on the right and the left lung cancer happens a lot in the lymphatic system here

costal pleura meets diaphragmatic pleura costal pleura meets mediastinal pleura where they contact: pleural recesses

vagus nerve

lung formation

happens as an outpocketing of the inner tube respiratory diverticulum expands and becomes laryngotracheal orifice single tube lined with endoderm and outer surface is mesoderm, the outpocketing grows and gets longer and bigger and splits

root of the lung

houses the pulmonary vessels (pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein) and the main bronchus

how is the mediastinum divided

imaginary transverse plane at the level of the sternal angle intersects the intervertebral disc between T4 and T5 -separates the superior mediastinum from the inferior mediastinum inferior mediastinum divided into 3 parts: anterior, middle, posterior mediastinum

lingula

inferior medial portion of the superior lobe of the L lung due to the cardiac notch

hilum of left lung

left main bronchus contains cartilage lies inferior to pulmonary artery

plane of the sternal angle is at the

level of the superior border of the pericardium, bifurcation of the trachea, end of the ascending aorta, beginning and end of the arch of the aorta, beginning of the thoracic aorta

oblique fissure

lie deep in the 5th rib laterally and deep to the 6th costal cartilage anteriorly R lung between middle and inferior lobes L lung between superior and inferior lobes

diaphragmatic surface

lies over the diaphragm when diaphragm contracts, the diaphragm pulls down and increases the volume lowering atmospheric pressure in the lungs; drawing air

elastic fibers

line the bronchi alongside smooth muscles

smooth muscles

lines the bronchi of the lungs

parietal pleura

lining of pulmonary cavity -costal pleura -mediastinal pleura -diaphragmatic pleura -cervical pleura

describe the function and innervation of the lungs and diaphragm

lungs are innervated by autonomic nervous system-> phrenic nerve controls the contraction of the diaphragm when the diaphragm contracts, the lungs expand with air the pulmonary plexus receive sympathetic contribution from the right and left sympathetic trunks (2nd to 5th thoracic ganglia) and parasympathetic contributions from the right and left vagus nerve (CN X) --> REST AND DIGEST

the lungs needs blood to nourish its tissue arterial blood is supplied to lung tissue via BRONCHIAL ARTERIES rising from the thoracic aorta (L) or intercostal arteries (R) just matches same patter as bronchi

tracheobronchial tree

trachea gives rise to the LEFT and RIGHT bronchi which are the main bronchi (primary bronchus) primary bronchus-> bronchiole-> respiratory bronchiole -> alveolar sac allows a GIANT surface area for exchange air
