Q

17
Q

What are the main holes in the hilum?

A

Main bronchi, thickest

pulmonary A. thicker

pulmonary v. thinnest

18
Q

What main thing should we see in the right lung surface?

A

cardiac impression

groove for first rib

19
Q

What are the main things you will see in the left lung surface?

A

cardiac impression, groove for first rib

groove for aortic arch and descending aorta

20
Q

What are the two distinct features of the anterior border of the left lung

A

cardiac notch

lingula

21
Q

CN: lung cancer

A

can involve the phrenic n, left vagus n., left recurrent larungeal nerve

treat with pneumectomy, lobectomy, segmentectomy via lung resection

22
Q

What are the four types of parietal pleura?

A

costal

mediastinal

diaphragmatic

cervical

23
Q

CN: Pleuritis

A

inflammation of the pleura producing a roughness on the lungs, making breathing difficult

24
Q

CN: pulmonary collapse

A

occurs when enough air enters the pleural cavity to break the surface tension between the two layers of pleura

the elasticity of the lungs causes them to collapse

25
Q

CN: Pneumothorax

A

entry of air inot the pleural cavity form a penetrating wound to the thoracic wall or rupture of a pulmonary lesion into the pleural cavity, which results in a collapse of the lung

26
Q

CN: hydrothorax

A

accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity, usually the result of fluid escape into the pleural cavity or pleural effusion

27
Q

CN: hemothorax:

A

accumulation of blood in the pleural cavity, usually the result of a chest wound, lacerating the intercostal vessel or internal thoracic vessel rather than the lung itself

28
Q

What is the flow of air through the airway?

A

trachea

main bronchus

superior lobar bronchus

segmental bronchi

conducting bronchiole

terminal bronchiole

respiratory bronchiole

alveolar duct

alveolus

29
Q

bronchial asthma

A

widespread narrowing of the airways produced by contraction of smooth muscle, edema of the mucosa, and mucus in the lumen of the bronchi and bronhioles
