Absence of Horizontal Fissure of Right Lung

Year 2019, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 45 - 47, 20.03.2019

Abstract

The right lung is
divided into three lobes names superior, middle, inferior by the oblique and
the transverse (horizontal) fissures. 
The fissures in the lung assistance even expansion of lung tissue and
serve as a reliable landmark on the lung. Occasionally, an extra fissure
divides a lung or a fissure is absent. In the present case, which was during
the routine cadaver dissection detected, we report absence of horizontal
fissure of the right lung in a 60 year old male cadaver.
  The position of fissures of the lung is
clinically important anatomic landmarks for surgeons performing lobectomy and
segmentectomy, radiologists in interpreting the MRI and CT scans.

Sağ Akciğerde Horizontal Fissür Yokluğu

Year 2019, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 45 - 47, 20.03.2019

Abstract

Sağ Akciğer oblik ve transvers (horizontal)
fissürlerle superior, medial ve inferior olmak üzere 3 loba ayrılır. Bu
fissürler akciğer dokusunun genişlemesine olanak tanır ve aynı zamanda
akciğerler üzerinde güvenilir bir yer işareti hizmeti görür. Bazen ekstra bir
fissür akciğeri bölebilir, bazen de bir fissürün yokluğu söz konusu olabilir.
Biz bu yazıda rutin kadavra diseksiyonu esnasında saptadığımız 60 yaşında bir
erkek kadavrada sağ akciğerde horizontal fissür yokluğunu bildirdik.
Akciğerlerdeki fissürlerin pozisyonu MR ve BT görüntülemelerini yorumlamada
radyologlar, lobektomi ve segmentektomi yapan cerrahlar için klinik olarak
önemli anatomik işaretlerdir.
