ANATOM Y AND PHYSIOLOGY OF LUNG
INTRODUCTION
The lungs are the primary organs of respiration in humans and many other animals including a few fish and some snails.
In mammals and most other vertebrates, two lungs are located near the backbone on either side of the heart. ANATOMY - LUNG The lungs are located in the chest on either side of the heart in the rib cage. They are conical in shape with a narrow rounded apex at the top and a broad base that rests on the diaphragm
The apex of the lung extends into the root of the neck, reaching shortly above the level of the sternal end of the first rib.
surfaces. The bottom of the lungs is smooth and rests on the diaphragm, matching its concavity. The medial surface of the lungs faces towards the center of the chest, and lies against the heart, great vessels, and the carina where the two main bronchi branch off from the base of the trachea. Gross anatomy Both lungs have a central recession called the hilum at the root of the lung, where the blood vessels and airways pass into the lungs. There are also bronchopulmonary lymph nodes on the hilum.
membranes; the outer parietal pleura lines the inner wall of the rib cage and the inner visceral pleura directly lines the surface of the lungs. Between the pleurae is a potential space called the pleural cavity containing pleural fluid.
Each lung is divided into lobes
by the invaginations of the pleura as fissures
. The fissures are double folds of pleura that section the lungs and help in their expansion. The lobes of the lungs are further divided into broncho pulmonary segments based on the locations of bronchioles .
Oblique fissure (Right & Left):
It starts at the 3 rd thoracic spine while the arms are elevated, descends downwards, laterally & anteriorly along the medial border of the scapula touching the inferior angle of the scapula) cutting the midaxillary line in the 5 th rib & ending at the 6 th costal cartilage 3 inches from the midline. In cadaver it arise at the 2 nd
thoracic spine.

• The respiratory tract begins with the trachea and bronchi. These structures are lined with columnar epithelial cells that possess cilia , small frond-like projections.
• Interspersed with the epithelial cells are goblet cells which produce mucous, and club cells with actions similar to macrophages. Surrounding these in the trachea and bronchi are cartilage rings, which help to maintain stability.
• The respiratory tract ends in lobules. These consist of a respiratory bronchiole, which branches into alveolar ducts and alveolar sacs, which in turn divide into alveoli .
Alveoli consist of two types of alveolar cell and an alveolar macrophage. The two types of cell are known as type I and type II alveolar cells (also known as pneumocytes )
Types I and II make up the walls and septa of the alveoli.
Type I cells provide 95% of the surface area of each alveoli and are flat (" squamous "), and Type II cells generally cluster in the corners of the alveoli and have a cuboidal shape.
Despite this, cells occur in a roughly equal ratio of 1:1 or 6:4
Type I are squamous epithelial cells that make up the alveolar wall structure. They have extremely thin walls that enable an easy gas exchange. These type I cells also make up the alveolar septa which separate each alveolus. The septa consist of an epithelial lining and associated basement membranes. Type I cells are not able to divide, and consequently rely on differentiation from Type II cells.
Type II are larger and they line the alveoli and produce and secrete ELF and surfactant. Type II cells are able to divide and differentiate to Type 1 cells.
B LOOD SUPPLY The human lung has a dual blood supply. The tissue of the lungs receive oxygenated blood via the bronchial circulation, a series of arteries that leave the aorta and are part of the systemic circulation. There are usually three arteries, and they branch alongside the bronchi and bronchioles.
total blood volume of the entire circulatory system. This quantity can easily fluctuate from between one-half and twice the normal volume. The lungs also receive deoxygenated blood from the heart and supply it with oxygen, in a process known as respiration.
In this process, venous blood in the body collects in the right atrium and is pumped from the right ventricle through the pulmonary trunk and the pulmonary arteries into the left and right lungs.
Blood passes through small capillaries next to the alveoli in the lung, receives oxygen, and travels back to the heart. This is called the pulmonary circulation. The oxygenated blood is then pumped to the rest of the body.
N ERVE SUPPLY The lungs are supplied by nerves of the autonomic nervous system. Input from the parasympathetic nervous system occurs via the vagus nerve.
When stimulated by acetylcholine, this causes constriction of the smooth muscle lining the bronchus and bronchiole, and increases the secretions from glands.
respiratory tract, which causes bronchodilation.
The action of breathing takes place because of nerve signals sent by the respiratory centres in the brainstem, along the phrenic nerve to the diaphragm. PHYSIOLOGY OF LUNG L UNG VOLUMES
