Frequently Asked Questions

What is lobular bronchiole?

A lobular bronchiole is a small airway branch characterized by the presence of simple alveoli in its wall, marking the transition between terminal bronchioles and alveolar ducts.

Where is lobular bronchiole located?

Located within each pulmonary acinus between the terminal bronchiole proximally and the alveolar ducts distally.

What is the function of lobular bronchiole?

The lobular bronchiole conducts air while beginning gas exchange through its simple alveolar outpouchings.

What is lobular bronchiole connected to?

Lobular bronchioles branch from terminal bronchioles and themselves branch into multiple alveolar ducts, forming the functional acinar unit.

Why is lobular bronchiole clinically important?

Bronchiolitis with inflammation and obstruction of lobular bronchioles causes severe airflow obstruction and hypoxemia, particularly in infants.
