The aim of the study was to determine the bronchial segmental tree dimensions of lower lobes in humans and Cercopithecus aethiops and to estimate the possible relations between them. The study was carried out on a group of 62 human cadavers (aged 20 to 60; 28 men, and 34 women) and 30 sexually mature corpses of Cercopithecus aethiops (14 male and 16 female individuals). The trachea and bronchi were swilled out, injected with duracryl and digested in hydrochloric acid. After washing out an exact model of the topographically unchanged bronchial tree was obtained. Those preparations were dried and the diameters of the segmental bronchi in the lower lobes of both lungs were measured. The statistical analysis was performed using the SAS system v. 6.11. Differences between groups were analyzed by ANOVA. If P < 0.05, differences between the mean values were considered statistically significant. In the studied material almost all measured values in Cercopithecus aethiops were higher in female individuals in contrast to the results obtained for humans. In both sexes of Cercopithecus aethiops medial and anterior basal bronchi have the biggest diameter in both sides, but in male and female humans posterior basal bronchus has the biggest diameter. Unlike humans, where the medial segments are small, the medial segments in Cercopithecus aethiops constitute a significant functional part of the lungs.
本研究的目的是确定人类和埃塞俄比亚猕猴下叶支气管节段树的尺寸，并估计它们之间可能的关系。该研究对62具人类尸体（年龄在20至60岁之间；男性28例，女性34例）和30只性成熟的埃塞俄比亚猕猴尸体（14只雄性和16只雌性个体）进行。将气管和支气管冲洗干净，注入丙烯酸酯并在盐酸中消化。冲洗后获得了地形未改变的支气管树的精确模型。将这些标本干燥并测量双肺下叶节段支气管的直径。使用SAS系统v. 6.11进行统计分析。通过方差分析分析组间差异。如果P < 0.05，则认为平均值之间的差异具有统计学意义。在研究材料中，与人类的结果相反，埃塞俄比亚猕猴几乎所有测量值在雌性个体中都更高。在埃塞俄比亚猕猴的两性中，内侧和前基底支气管两侧的直径最大，但在人类男性和女性中，后基底支气管的直径最大。与人类不同，人类的内侧节段较小，而埃塞俄比亚猕猴的内侧节段构成了肺的重要功能部分。
