Anatomy and Physiology

1

of the Larynx

1.1Anatomy

1.1.1 Laryngeal Cartilages

1.1.1.1 Thyroid

The laryngeal skeleton consists of several cartilaginous structures (Fig. 1.1), the largest of which is the thyroid cartilage. The thyroid cartilage is composed of two rectangular laminae that are fused anteriorly in the midline. The incomplete fusion of the two laminae superiorly forms the thyroid notch. Attached to each lamina posteriorly are the superior and inferior cornua. The superior cornua articulate with the greater horns of the hyoid bone, while the inferior cornua form a synovial joint with the cricoid cartilage (the cricothyroid joint). At the junction of each superior cornu with its respective thyroid ala is a cartilaginous prominence, the superior tubercle. The superior tubercle is of significance because it marks the point 1 cm below which the superior laryngeal artery and nerve cross over the lamina from laterally to pierce the thyrohyoid membrane. The sternothyroid and the thyrohyoid strap muscles attach to

Fig. 1.1  Cartilaginous and fibroelastic structures of the larynx

the anterior surface of the thyroid laminae at the oblique line. The inferior pharyngeal constrictor muscles insert on the posterior edge of each thyroid lamina.

The relationship of the internal laryngeal structures to the surface anatomy of the thyroid cartilage is important in surgical planning, particularly in planning the placement of the window for thyroplasty. The level of the vocal fold lies closer to the lower border of the thyroid cartilage lamina than to the upper, and not at its midpoint, as is frequently (and erroneously) stated. Correct placement of the window is necessary to avoid medialization of the false vocal folds or ventricular mucosa.

1.1.1.2 Cricoid

This signet ring-shaped cartilage is the only laryngeal cartilage to encircle completely the airway. The cricoid cartilage articulates with the thyroid cartilage’s inferior cornua on the cricothyroid joint facets. It joins the first tracheal ring inferiorly via membranous attachments. The face of the cricoid cartilage has a vertical height of only about 3–4 mm, while the lamina posteriorly stands about 20–30 mm high. There is a steep incline from anterior to posterior of the superior margin of the cricoid cartilage. This incline leaves an anterior window where the cricothyroid membrane lies.

1.1.1.3 Arytenoid

The arytenoid cartilages are paired, pyramidal cartilages that articulate with the posterior lamina of the cricoid cartilage at the cricoarytenoid joint. Each arytenoid has both a vocal process medially and a muscular process laterally. These processes act as the attachment sites for the vocal ligament and the major intrinsic muscles of vocal fold movement respectively.

1.1.1.4Accessory Cartilages: Cuneiform and Corniculate

The cuneiform cartilages are crico-arytenoid joint paired elastic cartilages that sit on top of, and move with, the corresponding arytenoid. The soft tissue of the aryepiglottic folds covers these cartilages. The corniculates are small, paired, fibroelastic cartilages that sit laterally to each of the arytenoids, and are completely embedded within the aryepiglottic folds. These
