• \An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Serous sac structure\Pleural sac structure\Pleural structure\Pleural part\Visceral pleura structure\The layer of the visceral pleura contains elastic fibers and fibrous tissue that merges with the lung.
