Intro
5. • Trachea divides into Right and Left Principle Bronchus
• Each Principle Bronchus divides into Lobar Bronchus
• Each Lobar bronchus devides into Segmental Bronchus
• Segmental Bronchus devide the Lobes of the Lungs into smaller
segments = Bronchopulmanory Segment
• Trachea – Principle Bronchus – Lobar Bronchus- Segmental
Bronchus
Tracheobronchial Tree
C-shaped rings of cartilage Overlaping Cartigilanous PlateDegrades
It’s a Invasion of Primary Bronchus into hilum of the lungs and their branching
structure of airways supplying air to the lungs.
6. • Divides from trachea into Right and Left Princple Bronchus
• Enter the both lungs at the hilum of the lungs
• Right = 2-3 cm long and wider then Left, more vertical
• Left = 5 cm and narrower
• Lined by Pseudostratified Ciliated columnar epithelium (Infact it , Lines all
Bronchus – From Principle until Segmental Bronchus , buts it shortens in
size as they move towards periphery . Thus most of the segmental bronchus
will be lined by Simple Cuboidal Ep.)
• Supported by C-shaped cartilage
• Further devides into Lobar bronchus
Principle Bronchus = Primary Bronchi
7. • Divides from Principle Bronchus
• Enter into Each lobe of the both Lungs
• Left Lung ; Superior Lobar Bronchus
; Inferior Lobar Bronchus
• Right Lung ; Superior Lobar Bronchus
; Middle Lobar Bronchus
; Inferior Lobar Bronchus
Lobar Bronchus = Secondary Bronchi
8. Right lung = 10 Segmental Bronchus

12. • Well defined portions of the lungs which is aerated by Segmental / Tertiary
Bronchus
• Pyramidal in shape - Apex directed towards root of the lungs , Base towards
Surface
• The name of the Segmental Bronchus corresponds to the name of the Segment
Ex : Apical Segment – Apical Segmental Bronchus
• It is a individual units consisting its own ;-
1 branch of Pulmanory Artery
1 or 2 branches of Pulmonary Vein
1 Segmental bronchus
Autonomic Nerves
Lymph Vessels
Broncopulmanory Segements
13. Refers to - Single infected segment can be surgically removed
without affecting its neighbours.
Infections - never crosses the intersegmental septa and are
restricted to one bronchopulmonary segment except Tuberculosis
and Cancer .
Excessive accumulation of secretions in bronchi may lead to infection
Postural drainage - Such secretions can be drain out of the lungs by
placing the patient in a posture that helps the fluid to be drain from
the lungs by gravity .
Clinical Importance
1. Segmental Resection (Segmentectomy).
2. Postural drainage
14. • Right lung
• Subdivided into three lobes
with ten segments:
Right upper lobe
1. Apical
2. Posterior
3. Anterior
Right middle lobe
4. Lateral
5. Medial
Right lower lobe
6. Superior
7. Medial Basal

15. • Left Lung
• Subdivided Into Two Lobes
With Ten Segments :
• Left Upper Lobe
– 1. Apical
– 2. Posterior
– 3. Anterior
– 4. Superior Lingular
– 5. Inferior Lingular
• Left Lower Lobe
– 6. Superior
– 7. Medial Basal
– 8. Anterior Basal
– 10. Posterior Basal
– 9. Lateral Basal
Broncopulmanory Segements

16. Relations to pulmonary artery and vein
• Pulmonary artery gives branches to accompany the
bronchi
• Each segment has its own arterial supply
•Pulmonary Vein do not accompany the bronchi or pulmonary
arteries
•They run in intersegmental planes forming segmental veins
•Each segment has more then 1 vein
17. • Segmental bronchi several million bronchioles
• Bronchioles - < 1mm in diameter
• Cartilagenous rings replaced by cartilagenous plates as the size of
bronchioles decrease.
• Size reaches to 0.6mm - completely disappear
• To make it simple , just remember bronchioles have no cartilage
• Lined by Ciliated Cuboidal Epithelium and well developed layer of smooth
muscle.
• Bronchioles 50 to 80 terminal bronchioles - still in the conducting
zone
• Terminal Bronchiole 2 or > respiratory bronchioles which mark the
beginning of the respiratory region.
Bronchiole
18. • Acinus = Distal to each Terminal Bronchial - consists of three to four
orders of respiratory bronchioles.
• Respiratory bronchioles 2 to 10 alveolar ducts.
• Walls of alveolar ducts consist of alveolar sacs or the mouths of
alveoli.
• Lined by Non-Ciliated Simple Squmous
• Smooth muscles are found in the walls of the airways upto the level
of alveolar ducts.
•Respiratory zone - Resp Bronchiole , A.Duct , A.Sac and Alveoli
•Respiratory bronchioles and the alveolar ducts are responsible for
10% of the gas exchange.
• The alveoli are responsible for the other 90%.
19.
20. Alveolus
• Singular - alveolus , plural: alveoli Latiin - "little cavity“
• Outcrop from either alveolar sacs or alveolar ducts which are both
sites of gas exchange with the blood
• Typical pair of human lungs - 700 million alveoli - 70m2 of surface
area
• Each alveolus is wrapped in a
fine mesh of capillaries covering
about 70% of its area
• Diameter of adult alveolus –
200 mictometers and during
inhalation
21. • Type I cells (simple squamous epithelium) 95 %
• Type II cells (cuboidal epithelium) 5 %
Secrete surfactant – Prevents alveoli from
collapsing by reducing the surface tension of the
fluid lining the alveolar surface
Repair damaged alveolar epithelium
• Macrophages (Dust Cells ) that destroy foreign
materials, such as bacteria
• Surfactant is a mixture of phospholipids(dipalmitoyl-
phosphatidyl-choline) 21
Alveolus
22. • Contain some collagen and elastic fibres
• Elastic fibers - allow the alveoli to stretch and Spring back during and inhalation
and exhalation
• Each alveolus Interconnect by way of alveolar pores ( Pores of Kohn )
Alveolus
24. • Is the barrier between alveolar air and blood
• A.K.A alveolar–capillary barrier or membrane
• Permeable to molecular O2 , CO2 , CO and many other
gases.
• Only simple squamous alveolar cells and squmous
endothelial cells of capilary
• Their both basement membrane are fused
Respiratory Membrane
25. • Prevents air bubbles from forming in the blood and blood from entering the alveoli.
• Extremely thin approximately 2μm-600 nm - to allow sufficient oxygen diffusion
• Type 4 Collagen fibers will provide strength to the barrier.
26. Trachea
• Fibrous connective tissue
• Cartilaginous Layer – Hyaline Cartilage
• Mucos Membrane

EXTRA KNOWLEDGE
Other Surgical removal in lungs for your extra knowledge
Lobectomy – surgical removal of a lobe of an organ. Often – removal of lobe of lung. It may also refer to the liver, brain, thyroid gland, and other organs. performed normaly during emphysema, lung abscesses, and tuberculosis.
Sleeve Lobectomy - removal of a cancerous lobe of the lung along with part of the bronchus that attaches to it. The remaining lobe(s) is then reconnected to the remaining segment of the bronchus. This procedure preserves part of a lung, and is an alternative to removing the lung as a whole (pneumonectomy).
Wedge Resection - removes a small, wedge-shaped portion of the lung containing the cancerous cells along with healthy tissue that surrounds the area. small tumor or to diagnose lung cancer. performed instead of a lobectomy (removing a complete lung lobe) when there is a danger of decreased lung function if too much of the lung is removed
Pneumonectomy - is most often done for cancer of the lung that cannot be treated by removal of a smaller portion of the lung
Pores of Kohn
Collateral ventilation = when lung - partially deflated, ventilation can occur to some extent through these pores.
Equalize the pressure in adjacent alveoli and thus play important role in prevention of collapse of lung.
Allow the passage of other materials such as fluid and bacteria, which is an important mechanism of spread of infection in lobar pneumonia and spread of fibrin in grey hepatisation phase of recovery from the same.
Content of Trachea and Bronchus is almost the same , but in addition , Bronchus has Muscular Layer (Smooth Muscles + Elastic Fibers). That’s why bronchus can constrict and dilate but the trachea cant
And Definitely the lining epithelia differs. Altough the Upper Part of bronchus ( Principle Bronchus ) = Trachea . But Towards lower part of the bronchus it shortents to Ciliated Simple Columnar Ep and finally to Simple Cuboidal Ep.
Clara Cells
Most Numerous in Terminal Bronchial .
Contains numerous mitochondria and S.E.R
Functions
Protect the bronchiolar epithelium.
Also secretes some surfactants too.
Detoxifying harmful substances inhaled into the lungs.
Act as a stem cell, multiplying and differentiating into ciliated cells to regenerate the bronchiolar epithelium.
Neuroendocrine Cells
Small and round cells . Dark staining nuclei . Clear cytoplasm
Located at basement membrane of lining epethilia
Scattered throughout the bronchial tree but mostly found in bronchioles
Most numerous in fetal lung
Functions – Secrete hormones and active proteins ( bombesin , serotonin )
