Q

Lung Cancer

A

Can derive from actual lung tissue or from the bronchi

Can involve the phrenic n., vagus n., and recurrent laryngeal n. due to close proximity of those n. to lungs

24
Q

Lung cancer treatment

A

Removal of a lung, a lobe of a lung (lobectomy) or a specific bronchopulmonary segment (secmentectomy) through a procedure called lung resection

25
Q

Pneumonectomy

A

Removal of a lung

26
Q

Lung resection

A

Removal of a specific bronchopulmonary segment

27
Q

How many pleura are associated with the lungs total?

A

2 per body. Think of fist in a partially filled balloon.

28
Q

Pleura

A

Paired serous membranes surrounding the lungs

29
Q

2 parts of pleura

A

Parietal

Visceral

30
Q

4 named sections of the parietal pleura

A

Costal - internal surface of the thoracic wall
Mediastinal - lateral mediastinum
Diaphragmatic - superior diaphragm
Cervical - dome shaped over the apex of the lung

31
Q

Visceral Pleura

A

Adherent to the lungs (stays adhered), extends into the fissures

32
Q

Pleuritis

A

Inflammation of the pleura producing a roughness on the lungs making breathing difficult

33
Q

Pleural Cavity

A

Potential space between the 2 layers of pleura that contains a serous lubricating fluid that reduces friction and produces cohesion through surface tension

34
Q

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

35
Q

Pneumothorax

A

Entry of air into the pleural cavity from a penetrating wound to the thoracic wall or a rupture of a pulmonary lesion into the pleural cavity, results in the collapse of a lung

36
Q

Hydrothorax

A

Accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity, usually the result of fluid escape into the pleural cavity or pleural effusion.
Any fluid other than blood

37
Q

Hemothorax

A

Accumulation of blood int he pleural cavity, usually the result of a chest wound, usually the result of laceration of an intercostal vessel or internal thoracic vessel rather than laceration of the lung

38
Q

Lines of pleural reflection

A

Abrupt changes in the direction of the parietal pleura

  • sternal line of pleura reflection
  • costal line of pleura reflection
  • vertebral line of pleural reflection
39
Q

Trachea

A

Extends from the larynx to its first branch point L and R bronchi
-exists in the posterior mediastinum

40
Q

Bronchus order

A
Main bronchus
Lobar bronchus
Segmental bronchi
Conducting bronchiole
Terminal bronchiole
Respiratory bronchiole
Alveolar duct
41
Q

Segmental bronchi

A

(aka tertiary)
associated with corresponding bronchopulmonary segment
Branches into conducting bronchiole

42
Q

Conducting bronchiole

A

Devoid of cartilage

Branches into terminal bronchioles

43
Q

Terminal bronchiole

A

Devoid of cartilage

Branches into respiratory bronchioles

44
Q

Respiratory Bronchiole

A

Devoid of cartilage
Capable of gas exchange
Branches into alveolar ducts

45
Q

Alveolar duct

A

Ending at an alveolus
Functional unit of the lung
Primary site of gas exchange

46
Q

1st bronchiole capable of gas exchange

A

Respiratory bronchiole

47
Q

Primary site of gas exchange

A

Alveolar duct

48
Q

Functional unit of the lung

A

Alveolar duct

49
Q

Last bronchi with cartilage

A

Segmental bronchi aka tertiary

50
Q

Which level of bronchus will be on lab practical?

A

Main bronchus

51
Q

Bronchial Asthma

A

Widespread narrowing of the airways produced by contraction of smooth muscle, edema of the mucosa and mucosa in the lumen of the bronchi and bronchioles

52
Q

Bronchopulmonary segments

A

Pyramid shaped segment with apex at the hilum and base at the pulmonary surface, separated by connective tissue septa, supplied by and named for a dingle segmental bronchus, surgically resectable.

53
Q

Bronchoscopy

A

Insertion of a bronchoscope into the trachea to visualize the main bronchi

54
Q
