Translated version
Pleura
A serous membrane, consisting of two layers: one covers the lungs, the other lines the inside of the chest cavity. The pleural space between them, with a small amount of fluid, ensures the lungs slide during breathing.
Original version
Krūtinplėvė (pleura)
Seriozinis dangalas, sudarytas iš dviejų lapelių: vienas dengia plaučius, kitas iškloja krūtinės ląstos vidų. Tarp jų esantis pleuros tarpas su nedideliu kiekiu skysčio užtikrina plaučių slydimą kvėpuojant.
