The hilum is a structural feature found in various organs, notably the lungs and kidneys. In the lungs, it is the region where the bronchi, blood vessels, and nerves enter and exit the lung tissue. In the kidneys, the hilum is the area where the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter connect to the kidney. It serves as a critical entry and exit point for important structures, facilitating their function within the organ.

How does the hilum in the upper lungs work?
Hm. There is no such thing as the "hilum of the upper lung". The hilum (also called the hilus) is the part of the lung where the bronchi, pulmonary veins, and pulmonary arteries enter the lung. Each lung has its own hilum. Surrounding the hilum are lymph nodes that help drain fluid that has entered the lung. Since the hilum consists of so many different structures with distinct purposes, there's no easy way to discuss how the hilum "works". It's more of an anatomical entity rather than a functional one. Do you have a specific question about the function of one of the structures in the hilum?
