Basal Branch Lateral Pulmonary Artery

The basal branch of the lateral pulmonary artery (raimis basalis lateralis, pna) is one of the main branches of the pulmonary artery, which provides blood supply to the lower lobe of the left lung.

The pulmonary artery arises from the right ventricle of the heart and divides into right and left branches, which go to the right and left lungs, respectively. The left pulmonary artery then branches into two main branches - the upper lobe and the lower lobe.

The lateral basal branch is one of the branches of the lower lobe artery. It branches at an acute angle and goes to the lower lobe of the left lung. This artery supplies the basal (lower) segments of the lateral (side) part of the lower lobe.

Thus, the basal branch of the lateral pulmonary artery plays an important role in providing blood flow to the lower parts of the left lung. Damage to this vessel can lead to disruption of the blood supply to the corresponding areas of the lung tissue.



Like many other organs, the human cardiovascular system is a complex mechanism that provides breathing and delivery of blood to the organs and tissues of our body. One important element of this system is the pulmonary artery, which transports blood from the heart to the lungs. In this article we will look at one of the branches of the pulmonary artery,
