The dog’s lungs are moderately firm and yellow-brown because of alveolar macrophages containing hemosiderin. Inflammatory mediators of these macrophages also induce fibroplasia, thus there is the extensive formation of interstitial collagen in the long tern. This collagen is the reason the lung fail to collapse after loss of negative pressure in the pleura cavity whe the diaphragm is incised at necropsy.
