Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Each lung is invested by an exceedingly delicate serous membrane, the pleura, which is arranged in the form of a closed invaginated sac. A portion of the serous membrane covers the surface of the lung and dips into the fissures between its lobes; it is called the pulmonary pleura (or visceral pleura).

The visceral pleura is attached directly to the lungs.
