With respect to distribution and flow, the Vasa pulmonalia resemble those of the normal grown domestic pig to a great extent. The present article investigates whether, like the human lung (Hayek, 1970), the arrangement of the blood vessels has a function over and above that of directing blood; that is to say, a mechanical function. The arteries through which the blood streams act as flexible supporting structures, and the veins as elastic holding structures, for the quadrupede animal also.
关于分布和血流，肺血管在很大程度上类似于正常成年家猪的肺血管。本文研究血管的排列是否像人类肺脏一样（哈耶克，1970年），除了引导血液的功能外还有其他功能；也就是说，是否有机械功能。对于四足动物来说，血液流经的动脉起到灵活的支撑结构作用，而静脉起到弹性固定结构的作用。
