[1] Organ for phonation
[2] Provides a protective sphincter at the inlet of the air passages :
Prevents the entry of swallowed food and other foreign bodies
Provides a blockade for generation of high intrathoracic pressure for coughing and aiding extreme muscular efforts

During the 4th week of IUL, the rudiment of the respiratory tree appears as a median laryngotracheal groove in the ventral wall of the pharynx.
The groove subsequently deepens and its edges fuse to form a septum, thus converting the groove into a splanchnopleuric laryngotrachealtube.
This process of fusion commences caudally and extends cranially but does not involve the cranial end where the edges remain separate, bounding a slit like aperture through which the tube opens into the pharynx.
![Page 6: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The tube is lined with endoderm from which the epithelial lining of the respiratory tract is developed.
The cranial end of the tube forms the larynx and trachea, and the caudal end produces two lateral outgrowths from which the bronchi and right and left lung buds develop.

THYROARYTENOID (Vocalis) :
Origin:
-posterior aspect of angle of thyroid cartilage.
-adjacent part of cricothyroid ligament.
Insertion:
vocal process
-anterolateral surface of cartilage.
- Fibres of the thyroarytenoid are prolonged into the aryepiglottic fol, some continuing to the margin of the epiglottis as the thyroepiglotticus.
Actions:
1) Thyroepiglotticus - widens the inlet of larynx
2) Vocalis - tensor of vocal cord
![Page 60: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

Only posterior cricoarytenoid.
Muscles which adduct vocal cord:
1) Lateral cricoarytenoid.
2) Interarytenoid.
3) Thyroarytenoid.
Muscles which tense vocal cord:
- Vocalis.
Closers of inlet of larynx:

![Page 63: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
MOVEMENTS OF VOCAL FOLDS
Affect the shape and size of rima glottidis.
1. During quiet breathing:(rest)
- intermembranous part of cord is triangular.
- intercartilagenous part is quadrangular.
2. During phonation or speech:
- intermembranous and intercartilagenous parts are reduced to a linear chink by adduction of vocal folds and adduction and medial rotation of arytenoidcartilages.
![Page 64: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
3. During forced inspiration:
- vocal fords undergo extreme abduction.
- rima are triangular.
- arytenoids rotated laterally and vocal process move widely apart.
4. During whispering:
- intermembranous part is closed.
- intercartilagenous part is opened.
![Page 65: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Mucous glands are freely distributed throughout.
Mucous glands are numerous over the posterior surface of epiglottis, margins of lower part of aryepiglottic fold and saccule.
Vocal folds are devoid of glands.
The mucous membrane is lubricated by the glands within the saccules.
The squamous epithelium covering the vocal folds is therefore susceptible to dessication.
![Page 66: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
1. Laryngeal branches of superior and inferior thyroid
arteries.
2. Cricothyroid branch of superior thyroid artery.
Superior thyroid artery arises from ECA
Inferior thyroid artery arises from Thyrocervicaltrunk of first part of subclavian artery.
![Page 67: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Superior vessels enter internal jugular vein by way of superior thyroid or facial vein.
Inferior vessels drain into brachiocephalic veins by way of inferior thyroid vein.
Some venous drainage from the larynx is by way of the middle thyroid vein into the internal jugular vein.
![Page 68: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Separated by vocal folds into : (1) Upper group
(2) Lower group
Upper group - upper deep cervical lymph nodes.
Lower group - lower part of deep cervical chain.
![Page 69: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
The supraglottic portion of the larynx is derived from the buccopharyngeal anlage(arches III and IV), whereas the glottic and subglottic portions derive from pulmonary anlage (arch VI).
Thus, each major component has an independent lymphatic circulation, separated into an upper and a lower drainage system.
![Page 70: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
A vocal fold contains only a few capillary vessels.
It is this poverty of lymph drainage which predisposes Reinke’s space to accumulation of oedema.
![Page 71: Anatomy of larynx physiology, 29.08.16, dr.bakshi](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021421/589a4e521a28ab040e8b5bb9/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

(i) superior laryngeal nerve
(ii) recurrent laryngeal nerve.

[3] REINKE’S SPACE
It lies immediately beneath the laryngeal mucosa, i.e superficial to the vocal ligament
It is bounded superiorly and inferiorly by the junction of the columnar and squamousepithelium which represents the superior and inferior arcuate lines.
