    The document discusses bronchopulmonary segments and postural drainage. Bronchopulmonary segments are the anatomical and functional units of the lung, with 10 segments in the right lung and 8-9 in the left. Segments are surrounded by connective tissue and each has its own bronchi, artery, veins, and nerves. A diseased segment can be removed surgically without affecting other segments. Postural drainage uses positioning and tapping to loosen mucus in the airways so it can be coughed out.

    bronchopulmonary segments...
    - Are the anatomic structural and functional unit of lung parenchyma.

    - There are ten segments located within the right lung, and roughly 8 – 9 on the left side (as some of the
    segments may fuse together).
    SLIDESMANIA
    bronchopulmonary segments...

    01 02
    are subdivisions of the lung lobes. are the anatomical, functional
    & surgical units of lungs

    03 04
    are surrounded by connective they have segmental broncus, a
    tissue septa. segmental artery, lymph

    vessels and autonomic nerves


    bronchopulmonary segments...

    the segmental veins lie in the inter a diseased segment can be removed

    Tuberculosis & bronchogenic


    carcinoma may spread from one
    segment to another.

    Elephants and storms.

    Did you know that elephants can sense storms?

    Elephants may be able to detect a thunderstorm from hundreds of miles away,


    and will head towards it, looking for water.

    Postural Drainage
    SLIDESMANIA
    what is it?

    well, it is a technique for toosening mucus in the airway so that


    it may be coughed out

    Tapping is performed in certain areas with the patient in different positions.

    what is it?

    Clinical significance?!

    Tuberculosis Sequestration of lung cancerous lesion

    apical & post segments of posterior basal segment of anterior segments of RUL.
    upper lobes, because of lower lobe (left >> right)
    high ventilation perfusion
    ratio with elevated alveolar
    PO2 relative to other zone.
    SLIDESMANIA
    Clinical significance?!

    Lung abscess Aspiration pneumonia Bronchiectasis

    posterior segment of the upper lobe or apical segments both lower more common in left lower
    in the superior or posterior basal lobes or posterior segment lobe because of longer &
    segment of the lower lobe, especially of the RUL narrower bronchus leading
    on the r.lung because of more vertical to retained sectetions.
    broncus and also that aspirated

    secretionso gravitate in these segments


    in supine position.
    Sugical significance?!

    Pneumonectomy Lombectomy Segmentectomy

    removal of entire lung removal of lobe removal of section of a


    lobe of the lung

    Can you remember the lobes being
    drained in these positions?
