Anatomy/Pathogenesis. Pincer-type FAI is secondary to acetabular overcoverage, and. although this is typically anteriorly based, overcoverage can. be present superiorly and posteriorly as well.1-14 This acetab-. ular overcoverage results in impingement of the acetabular. rim against the femoral neck during range of motion. The.
They are supported by the surrounding lung tissue. The lungs are slightly different on each side. The right lung is divided into 3 sections called the upper, middle and lower lobes. The left lung is divided into 2 sections called the upper and lower lobes.
As the bronchial tubes pass through the lungs, they divide into smaller air passages called bronchioles. The bronchioles end in tiny balloon-like air sacs called alveoli. Your body has over 300 million alveoli. The alveoli are surrounded by a mesh of tiny blood vessels called capillaries. Here, oxygen from the inhaled air passes through the alveoli walls and into the blood. After absorbing oxygen, the blood leaves the lungs and is carried to your heart. Your heart then pumps it through your body to provide oxygen to the cells of your tissues and organs.
