ABSTRACT
3 cases of azygos lobe were found during dissection at Chungnam National University of Korea in 2000 ~2001. All the azygos lobes located at the right upper lobe, and azygos fissures began from the upper anterior part of hilum, curved laterally and postieriorly around the apical portion of right lung toward the upper posterior part of hilum. Each azygos vein of 3 cases ran along the azygos fissure in its base, forming azygos arch, and ended into the superior vena cava at the level of 2nd costal cartilage. Bronchopulmonary dissection revealed the B 1 a and B 1 b supplying the azygos lobe in all cases.
