4. Anatomy of Phonation

advertisement
1!
Larynx - cartilaginous structure holding the vocal folds which protrude into
airstream
2!
Flow increase - like thumb over garden hose
Pressure drop - narrower space forces pressure drop due to speed of air
Voiced - voiceless sounds
PhonationAnatomy
glottis, subglottal region,
Biological function -protection of airway
-seal during swimming
-seal to provide base for muscles

One cycle of vocal fold vibration
A. Air from lungs hits adducted folds
B. Pressure parts folds inferiorly
C. Superior aspects of folds opens
D. Folds blown apart, flow between folds increases and
pressure decreases
E. Decreased pressure and elastic quality of folds causes folds
to return toward
midline
F. Folds make contact inferiorly
G. Vibration cycle completed
Although specific muscles cause movement, actual vibration is product of
airflow interacting with tissue in absence of repetitive muscle contraction

Three paired and three unpaired cartilages
Tube with smooth and reasonably aerodynamic surface
1. Cricoid - ring shaped, narrow anteriorly
Sheets and cords of ligaments connect cartilages with smooth mucous
2. Thyroid - articulates with cricoid through paired processes which let it rock
membrane covering medial-most surface
forward and backward, anterior vocal fold attachment
Thyrohyoid membrane, lateral thyrohyoid ligament, and median thyrohyoid
3. Arytenoids (paired) - posterior point for attachment of vocal folds ride
ligament cover space between hyoid and thyroid
upon posterior portion of cricoid cartilage
Hyoepiglottic and thyroepiglottic ligaments attach epiglottis to the hyoid and
4. Corniculates (paired) - rest upon arytenoids
thyroid
5. Cuneiforms (paired) - rest within the aryepiglottic folds atop corniculates
Cricotracheal ligament attaches trachea to larynx
6. Epiglottis - medial to thyroid and hyoid - protective as it covers larynx
Ventricle folds (false) and vocal folds separated by laryngeal ventricle

Five layers
1. Squamous epithelium - extremely thin - gives vocal folds the pearly white
appearance
2. Lamina propria
a. Elastin fibers - random orientation allowing stretching
b. Elastin fibers - anterior/posterior orientation
c. Collagen fibers - anterior/posterior orientation but prohibits extension
3. Thyrovocalis muscle Some authors
mucosal lining - 1 and 2a layer
vocal ligament - 2b and 2c (giving stiffness and structure)
Other authors
cover - 1, 2a and 2b
body - 2c and 3
Valleculae - “little valleys” formed by membrane between tongue and
epiglottis
Glottis - space between folds, usually approximately 20mm in adults
Anterior commissure - anterior most opening
Posterior commissure - between the arytenoid cartilages
Cuneiform cartilages - embedded within the aryepiglottic folds - provide
support for membranous covering

Viewed as expanded tracheal cartilage
Would loosely fit on little finger
Arytenoids - one of most important of larynx
Union between tongue and larynx (although not bone of larynx)
rest on posteriolateral surface of cricoid
-articulates loosely with superior cornu of thyroid
1. apex - below corniculate cartilages
-only bone in body not attached to another bone
2. base - inferior surface is concave and articulates with convex arytenoid
facet of cricoid
3. Vocal process - projects anteriorly toward thyroid notch and serves as
attachment for vocal folds (thyrovocalis muscle)
4. Muscular process - attachment for muscles which adduct and abduct
folds (thyromuscularis muscle)
17!
1. Cricothyroid joint - synovial joint of cricoid and inferior cornu of thyroid
18!
2. Cricoarytenoid joint - synovial joints between concave arytenoid base and
-permits thyroid to rock down in front and slightly glide forward and
convex cricoid cartilage
backward
-permits rocking, gliding and minimal rotation
-provides major adjustment for changes in vocal pitch
A. Arrows show rocking movement as result of articular facet
B. Long axis of facet allows permits anterior/posterior gliding
C. May also rotate.

Thyromuscularis (lateral thyroarytenoid)
Origin - inner surface thyroid cartilage near notch
Thyroepiglottis: also known as the superior thyroarytenoid muscle. Some
anatomists say this muscle is not present in all individuals. It originates higher
on the internal surface of the thyroid cartilage and has a more oblique direction
back down toward the muscular process of the arytenoid where it inserts. When
present this muscle seems to serve as a relaxer of the vocal fold. It may also
possibly be responsible for changing and controlling the internal dimensions of
the epilarynx and false vocal folds.
Insertion - muscular process and base of arytenoid cartilage
Innervation - X (vagus) recurrent laryngeal nerve
Function - relaxes vocal folds
