Q

cricotracheal lig

A

attaches cricoid to first tracheal cartilage

22
Q

intrinsic lig of larynx

A

quadrangular lig

cricovocal lig

23
Q

quadrangular lig

A

attaches ant to thyroid and epiglottic cartilages
attaches post to arytenoid cart
forms vestibular ligaments (covered in mucosa=vestibular folds)
forms aryepiglottic lig (covered in mucosa= aryepiglottic fold)

24
Q

cricovocal lig

A

attaches inf to cricoid cartilage
attaches sup to thryoid and arytenoid cartilages
thickened regions:
-median cricothyroid lig
-lat cricothyroid lig
-vocal lig extends from internal surface of thyroid lamina to vocal process of arytenoid, covered w/mucosa= vocal fold

25
Q

vocal folds

A

formed from mucosa overlying vocal lig and vocalis m

26
Q

vocal lig

A

innermost portion of circovocal lig, extends from thryoid cart to vocal process of arytenoid cart

27
Q

vocalis m

A

innermost portion of thyroarytenoid m

28
Q

vestibular folds

A

formed from mucosa overlying vestibular lig

covered w/highly vascularized mucosa, contains many mucus secreting gland

29
Q

joints of larynx

A

cricothyroid

cricoarytenoid

30
Q

cricothyroid joint

A

btwn cricoid cart and inf horn of thyroid cart
synovial, gliding
allows thyroid to glide on cricoid in order to change vocal cord length

31
Q

cricoarytenoid joint

A

btwn cricoid cart and arytenoid cart
synovial, gliding, rotational
allows arytenoid cart to rotate and glide toward each other

32
Q

rotation of arytenoid carts

A

to abduct (post cricoarytenoid)
and
adduct (lateral cricoarytenoid) vocal ligs

33
Q

gliding of arytenoids

A

to adduct vocal ligs to clode ria glottis (transverse and oblique artenoids)

34
Q

rotating thyroid cart on cricothryoid joint

A

to increase (Cricothyroid m) and decrease (thyroarutenoid m) tension on vocal ligs

35
Q

circothyroid m

A

tilts thyroid forward to elongate and tighten vocal lig

36
Q

transverse and oblique arytenoids

A

adduct arytenoid carts

close laryngeal inlet by approximating arytenoid carts

37
Q

post cricoarytenoid

A

abduct vocal folds to open rima glottis

38
Q

lateral cricoarytenoid

A

adduct vocal fold to close rima glottis

39
Q

thyroarytenois

A

rotates thyroid cart back to shorten and loosen vocal lig

40
Q

vocalis m

A

innermost portion of thyroarytenoid m
lateral to vocal lig
locally controls vocal lig produces minute adjustments

41
Q

innervation

A

external br of superior laryngeal n to cricothyroid

recurrent laryngeal all other mm

42
Q

internal laryngeal n

A

from superior from X
pierces thyrohyoid membrane
provides GVE-P and GVS to proximal true vocal folds
SVA to epiglottic region of tongue

43
Q

external laryngeal n

A

from superior from X

SVE to cricothyroid m

44
Q

cough refelx

A

mediated by X

objects in larynx stimulate superior laryngeal n and causes contraction of laryngeal m

45
Q

superior laryngeal n block

A

needle inserted bwn hyoid and sup thyroid cart

46
Q

inf laryngeal n

A

from recurrent laryngeal from X
enters larynx by passing inf to inf constrictor
GVEP and GVA distal to true vocal folds
SVE to all mm except cricothyroid

47
Q

aa of larynx

A

sup laryngeal a
cricothyroid a
inf laryngeal a

48
Q

sup laryngeal a

A

br of sup thyroid a
pierces thyrohyoid membrane
supplies larynx above true folds

49
Q

circothyroid a

A

br of sup thryroid a

supplies cricothyroid m

50
Q

inf laryngeal a

A

br of inf thyroid a

supplies larynx below true folds

51
Q

vv of larynx

A

sup laryngeal v to internal jugular

inf laryngeal v to left brachiocephalic

52
Q

lymp

A

above true folds -> sup deep cervical nodes

below true folds -> inf deep cervical nodes
