A pleura Pleura The pleura is a serous membrane that lines the walls of the thoracic cavity and the surface of the lungs. This structure of mesodermal origin covers both lungs, the mediastinum, the thoracic surface of the diaphragm, and the inner part of the thoracic cage. The pleura is divided into a visceral pleura and parietal pleura. Pleura: Anatomy é uma membrana serosa que reveste as paredes da cavidade torácica e a superfície dos pulmões. Esta estrutura de origem mesodérmica cobre ambos os pulmões, o mediastino, a superfície torácica do diafragma e a parte interna da caixa torácica.

Assim, estende-se virtualmente tão longe quanto a cavidade torácica.

Suprimento sanguíneo das pleuras:
A pleura parietal recebe irrigação sanguínea das artérias intercostal, diafragmática, mediastínica e torácica interna. A pleura visceral recebe irrigação sanguínea dos vasos brônquicos e pulmonares.
