Across
- 1. Chronic dilation of a bronchus secondary to infection
- 3. Clot or other material lodges in vessels of the lung. The clot travels from distant veins, usually in the legs.
- 5. Abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural space (cavity)
- 7. Collection of air in the pleural space.
- 9. Acute inflammation and infection of alveoli, which fill with pus or products of the inflammatory reaction.
- 10. Large collection of pus (bacterial infection) in the lungs.
- 12. Chronic inflammatory disease in which small nodules (granulomas) develop in lungs, lymph nodes, and other organs.
Down
- 2. Inflammation of bronchi persisting over a long time; type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- 3. Fluid in the air sacs and bronchioles. Most often caused by the inability of the heart to pump blood (congestive heart failure)
- 4. Collapsed lung; incomplete expansion of alveoli (resembles a collapsed balloon
- 6. Hyperinflation of air sacs with destruction of alveolar walls. Loss of elasticity and the breakdown of alveolar walls result in expiratory flow limitation. Strong association between this and cigarette smoking.
- 8. Inherited disorder of the exocrine glands resulting in thick mucinous secretions in the respiratory tract that do not drain normally
- 11. Inflammation of the pleura
