movimenti solidali

Italian to English Other Medical (general)
How would you translate "movimenti solidali" in this sentence "Così vengono garantiti movimenti solidali tra il polmone e la parete toracica"?

Context: "Lo spazio tra il polmone e la parete toracica (spazio pleurico) contiene un sottile strato di liquido (liquido pleurico), tra le cui funzioni vi è quella di lubrificare lo scorrimento reciproco delle due pleure durante gli atti respiratori (Figure 11-12). Tale liquido si forma per filtrazione dai capillari sottopleurici, in maggior misura a livello dei capillari che vascolarizzano la pleura parietale. Questa, inoltre, presenta stomi linfatici che provvedono ad una aspirazione attiva del liquido in qualità di valvole unidirezionali, potendo così produrre pressioni nettamente subatmosferiche ed assumere un ruolo importante nel mantenere in uno stato di adesione i due foglietti pleurici. Così vengono garantiti movimenti solidali tra il polmone e la parete toracica."

synchronised/simultaneous movement(s)

I think this refers to movement that happens at the same time in a synchronised manner
Peer comment(s):

agree SJLD : yes, that's what it means, but not necessarily how we would say it in English

movement together as a single unit

Take a look at these example sentences:


Normally, the lung and chest wall move together as a single unit.

The lung and chest wall move together as a unit in healthy people. Separating these structures is the pleural space, which is best thought of as a potential space. Because the lung and chest wall move together, changes in their respective volumes are equal.
