Lungs are divided into lobs by the oblique and the transvers fissures. The right lung consists of three lobes and left lungs two lobes. These subdivisions of the pulmonary lobes are divided into segments. During the development, some extra fissure and extra lobe may occur in the lungs. In the department of Anatomy of Erciyes University, during the routine cadavers dissection, extra fissure and extra lobe variations were found in the right lungs of two cadaver. One of the cadaver has an extra fissure and extra lobe on the inferior lobe of right lung whereas the other cadaver has extra fissure and extra lobe both superior lobe and inferior lobe of the right lung. These fissure length is 6.7, 5.6, 4.8 cm and depth is 4.2, 3.2, 3.3 cm respectively. There was no variation in left lung of the both cadavers. Previous studies reported that the lung could have an extra lobes (azygos lobe) and extra fissures which were similar to present cases. The knowledge of the accessory fissur of lungs is very important in surgical procedure such as lobectomy and segmentectomy
