Urine in the lung of an adult would be very rare, so assuming you mean urine in the lung of an infant or newborn, the term you are looking for would probably be AFA or Amniotic Fluid Aspiration. After the 36th week of pregnancy, the amniotic fluid filling the sac around the fetus is made up mostly of the urine of the fetus. During labor and delivery infants can aspirate or breathe and pull the amniotic fluid into their lungs. This aspiration can lead to respiratory distress or respiratory distress syndrome and lung infections in the newborns. Sometimes the amniotic fluid around the time of delivery also contains meconium which is the digestive excrement of the fetus. Meconium aspiration is also a term used for this, and since the amniotic fluid is mostly urine, there will also be urine that gets into the lungs at the same time. Meconium aspiration can also lead to serious respiratory problems in the newborn.
