  1. The Respiratory System

  2. The General Description The respiratory system includes the res- piratory tract and lungs. The primary function of this system is to supply the body with oxygen and get rid of excess carbon dioxide resulting from cell metabolism.

  3. Composition • Respiratory tract • Nose • Pharynx upper respiratory tract • Larynx • Trachea lower respiratory tract • Bronchi • Lungs-paired organs of respiration Function: supply the body with oxygen and to get rid of excess carbon dioxide resulting from cell metabolism

  4. The Nose External nose: • Root of nose • Back of nose • Apex of nose • Alae of nose Nasal cavity –divided into two halves by nasal septum

  5. Two parts of nasal cavity: • Divided by limen nasi Nasal vestibule • Proper nasal cavity Boundaries • Roof-cribriform plate of ethmoid , Sphenoid, Frontal bone and nasal bone • Floor-hard palate • Medial wall-nasal septum • Lateral wall • Nasal conchae: superior, middle and inferior • Nasal meatus: superior, middle and inferior • Sphenoethmoidal recess

  6. Remove the middle nasal conchae Semilunar hiatus Ethmoidal infundibulum Ethmoidal bulb Nasolacrimal canal

  7. The formation of the nasal septum 2 Bones, 1 Cartilage, Nasal mucous membrane: olfactory region respiratory region The longitudinal plate of ethmoid bone The cartilage of nasal septum The vomer back

  8. Mucous membrane of nose • Olfactory region: located upper nasal cavity, above superior,nasal conchae,contains olfactory cells • Respiratory region : its function is to warm, moisten, and clean the inspired air

  9. The paranasal sinuses and their site of drainage into the nose

  10. Frontal sinus Ethmoidal sinuses Sphenoid sinus Maxillary sinus

  11. The openings of the paranasal sinuses • 3.Paranasal Sinuses— • frontal sinus • middle nasal meatus • maxillary sinus • middle nasal meatus • sphenoidal sinus • recessus sphenoethmoidalis • ethmoidal sinus • Anterior and middle -middle nasal meatus • Posterior- superior nasal meatus • 4, nasolacrimal duct • inferior nasal meatuses

  12. The Larynx Position-situated in the anterior part of the neck (below the hyoid bone), and extends from vertebral level of C4 to C6

  13. Layngeal cartilages Thyroid cartilage • Shield-shaped cartilage • Laryngeal prominence at base of thyroid notch • Superior thyroid notch, superior and inferior cornua Cricoid cartilage • Complete ring of cartilage (shaped like a signet ring) • Arch of cricoid cartilage-at level of C6 • Larmina of cricoid cartilage

  14. Arytenoid • Paired, pyramid shaped, articulate with lamina of cricoid cartilage • Vocal process anteriorly, site of posterior attachment of vocal fold • Muscular process Epiglottic cartilage leaf-shaped elastic cartilage situated behind the root of the tongue

  22. Muscles of larynx • Increasing tension on the vocal ligament-cricothyroid • Decreasing tension on the vocal ligament-thyroarytenoid • Opening the glottis-posterior cricoarytenoid • Closing the glottis- lateral cricoarytenoid, transverse arytenoid and oblique arytenoid.

  23. 3. Laryngeal cavity 3 parts: laryngeal vestibule intermediate cavity of larynx infraglottic cavity by 2 fissures— vestibular fissure fissure of glottis laryngeal inlet vestibular fold vocal fold ventricle of larynx

  24. Laryngeal cavity Aperture of larynx -bounded by upper border epiglottic cartilage, aryepiglottic folds and interarytenoid notch

  25. Structure features • Two pairs of shelf like folds : • Vestibular folds • Vocal folds • Two fissures • Rima vestibuli • Fissure of glottis • Inter membranous part-anterior 3/5, between vocal-folds • Inter cartilagrnous part -posterior 2/5, between arytenoids cartilages

  26. Three parts • Laryngeal vestibule • Extends from the aperture of larynx to the rima vestibuli • Tubercle of epiglottis Intermedial cavity of larynx • Extends from the level of the rima vestibuli to the level of the fissure of glottis • Ventricle of larynx -a small recess between vestibular and vocal folds on each side • Infraglottic cavity • extends from the level of the vocal folds to the lower border of the cricoid cartilage

  27. The Trachea • Position: extends from the lower border of cricoid cartilage to the level of sternal angle (between T4-T5 vertebrae) where it divides into right and left principal bronchi • Structure features • Consists of about 16-20 C-shaped incomplete tracheal cartilages for patency connected by smooth muscle and connective • Carina of trachea -ridge of cartilage at bifurcation into principal bronchi

  28. Bronchi Right principal bronchus • Shorter, wider, and more vertical than the left , is about 2.5cm long, Leaves the extend line of the middle line of trachea at 22~25o angle • Foreign bodies are therefore more likely to lodge in this bronchus or one of its branches Left principal bronchus • Narrower, longer, and more horizontal than the right is about 5cm long, leaves the extend line of the middle line of trachea at about 35~36o angle

  29. Ⅳ.The trachea and main bronchus: Bifurcation of trachea

  30. Ⅴ. Lung: • Position:located in the thoracic cavity, both sides of the • mediastinum, above the diaphragm

  31. The Lungs Position: located in the thoracic cavity by both sides of mediastinum General features • Cone-shaped, the right lung is shorter and broader, the left one is longer and narrower • Apex of lung-rises 2 ~3 cm above the medial third of clavicle into neck • Base-concave, related to diaphragm, also called diaphragmatic surface • Costal surface-large, convex, related to thoracic wall

  32. External features: • an apex • a base • 2 surfaces— • mediastinal and • costal surfaces • 3 borders– • anterior border, • inferior border, • posterior border

  37. Bronchial tree Each principal bronchus divides into lobar bronchi (two on the left, three on the right), each of which supplies a lobe of lung. Each lobar bronchus then divided into segmental bronchi, which supply specific segments of the lung.

  38. The structures of the lung: two parts • ---bronchial tree: • principal bronchus--- • lobar bronchi---segmental • bronchi--- bronchioles--- • terminal bronchioles • --- alveoli of the lung:

  39. Bronchopulmonary segments • Wedge shaped, with the base lying peripherally and the apex lying towards the root of lungs, ten in each lung • Each with a segmental bronchus and branches of pulmonary artery • The veins lie both in and between segments

The Segments of the lung: bronchopulmonary segments • Bronchopulmonary segments of right lung • superior lobe • apical • posterior • anterior • middle lobe • lateral • medial • inferior lobe • superior • medial-basal • anterior-basal • lateral-basal • posterior-basal • Bronchopulmonary segments of left lung • superior lobe • apico-posterior (merger of "apical" and "posterior") • anterior • lingula of superior lobe • inferior lingular • superior lingular • inferior lobe • superior • anterior medial basal (merger of "anterior basal" and "medial basal") • posterior basal • lateral basal

  41. The Pleura General features • Serous membranes forming closed sacs • Two layers • Visceral pleura-adheres to lung, continuous with parietal pleura at root of lung • Parietal pleura-lines the thoracic cavity

  42. Two pleural layers continue with each other at root of lung forming closed potential space-pleural cavity • Contains a small amount pleural fluid • Subatmospheric pressure in it

  43. Named parts of parietal pleura • Cupula of pleura -extends up into the neck, over the apex of lung, 2~3cm above the medial third of clavicle • Costal pleura -lines the inner surface of the wall of the chest • Mediastinal pleura • Lines mediastinum • Pulmonary ligament -redundant pleura at root of lung, which extends downward, allows movement of structures forming root of lung • Diaphragmatic pleura -Lines diaphragm

  44. Pleural recesses -potential spaces of pleural cavity which lungs are not occupied in quiet respiration • Costodiaphragmatic recesse-are the slit-like intervals between costal and diaphragmatic pleurae on each side, the lowest point of pleural cavity • Costomediastinal recess -on the left side between the mediastinal pleura and costal pleura
