Neurogenic Voice Disorders Flashcards
Motor control of the larynx consists of…? (CNS)
- Motor cortex
- Primary motor strip
- Midbrain
- Brainstem
What is in charge of voice response (preplanning)? (CNS)
Broca’s area
What is in charge of motor planning for voice? (CNS)
Insula
What is responsible for voice production? (CNS)
Precentral gyrus
What is responsible for sensory info for vocalizing (motor)? (CNS)
Basal ganglia/Thalamus
What is responsible for audition? (CNS)
Temporal lobes (Heschyl’s gyrus)
Motor to stylopharyngeus m. (elevates larynx) (PNS)
Glossopharyngeal (IX)
Sensory and motor to larynx, motor to thorax (PNS)
Vagus (X)- SLN, RLN
Neck accessory m.’s (SCM & trap), levator veli palatini & uvula (PNS)
Spinal Accessory (XI)
Depression/elevation of larynx (via tongue m.’s), neck strap m.’s (PNS)
Hypoglossal (XII)
CN’s of phonation/voice (4)
IX, X, XI, XII
SLN Vagus branch function
Sensory: (internal branch) mucous membrane supraglottal larynx
Motor: (external branch) CT m.
RLN Vagus branch function
Right: loops behind R carotid & R subclavian
Left: loops around aortic arch
Motor: TA of VF, PCA (abductor), LCA (adductor), transverse arytenoids (adduction), oblique arytenoids (adduction)

- Congenital (Huntington’s)
- Lesion/tumor/disease (dysarthrias, stroke, cancer)
- Trauma (TBI, n. trauma)
Neurogenic Disorders (3)
- LMN
- UMN
- Mixed
