Mediastinal pleura
Different portions of the
parietal pleura
have received special names which indicate their position: thus, that portion which lines the inner surfaces of the ribs and
Intercostales
is the
costal pleura
; that clothing the convex surface of the diaphragm is the
diaphragmatic pleura
; that which rises into the neck, over the summit of the lung, is the
cupula of the pleura
(
cervical pleura
); and that which is applied to the other
thoracic
viscera
is the mediastinal pleura.
