Pleura of the Lungs. The pleura includes two thin layers of tissue that protect and cushion the lungs. The inner layer (visceral pleura) wraps around the lungs and is stuck so tightly to the lungs that it cannot be peeled off. The outer layer (parietal pleura) lines the inside of the chest wall.The very thin space between the layers is called the pleural cavity. A liquid, called pleural fluid, lubricates the pleural cavity so that the two layers of pleural tissue can slide against each other.By Healthwise Staff.he very thin space between the layers is called the pleural cavity.

Pleura refers to the cavity that surrounds and protects the human lungs. Pneumonia may cause the two membranes that make up the pleural cavity to rub together.Physicians examinine chest radiographs before to determine if a patient's pleura has been compromised.
