| arytenoid cartilage | One of a pair of small pyramidal cartilages that articulate with the lamina of the cricoid cartilage. The corresponding vocal ligament and several muscles are attached to it. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| arytenoid glands | A large number of mixed glands in the mucous membrane of the larynx; they are called, according to their situation, anterior, middle, and posterior. Synonym: glandulae laryngeae, laryngeal glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arytenoid swelling | Paired primordial elevations, on either side of the embryonic larynx, within which the arytenoid cartilages are formed. Brain swelling, a pathologic entity, localised or generalised, characterised by an increase in bulk of brain tissue, due to expansion of the intravascular (congestion) or extravascular (oedema) compartments that may coexist or may occur separately and be clinically indistinguishable; clinical manifestations depend on disturbed neuronal function due to local swelling, shifting of intracranial structures, and the effects of intracranial hypertension or circulatory disturbance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| base of arytenoid cartilage | The part of the arytenoid cartilage that articulates with the cricoid cartilage and from which the muscular process extends laterally and the vocal process projects anteriorly. Synonym: basis cartilaginis arytenoideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vocal process of arytenoid cartilage | The lower end of the anterior margin of the arytenoid cartilage to which the vocal cord is attached. Synonym: processus vocalis cartilaginis arytenoidei, vocal process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| colliculus of arytenoid cartilage | The elevation on the anterolateral surface of the arytenoid cartilage above the triangular fovea. Synonym: colliculus cartilaginis arytenoideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscular process of arytenoid cartilage | The blunt lateral projection of the arytenoid cartilage giving attachment to the lateral and posterior cricoarytenoid muscles of the larynx. Synonym: processus muscularis cartilaginis arytenoidei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| supra-arytenoid cartilage | A conical nodule of elastic cartilage surmounting the apex of each arytenoid cartilage. Synonym: cartilago corniculata, corniculum laryngis, Santorini's cartilage, supra-arytenoid cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oblique arytenoid | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, muscular process of arytenoid cartilage; insertion, summit of arytenoid cartilage of opposite side and continuing as the aryepiglottic muscle in the aryepiglottic fold to the epiglottis; action, narrows the interarytenoid portion of the rima glottidis; nerve supply, recurrent laryngeal. Synonym: musculus arytenoideus obliquus, arytenoideus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oblong fovea of arytenoid cartilage | A broad shallow depression on the anterolateral surface of the arytenoid cartilage, for attachment of the thyroarytenoid muscle. Synonym: fovea oblonga cartilaginis arytenoideae, oblong pit of arytenoid cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oblong pit of arytenoid cartilage | A broad shallow depression on the anterolateral surface of the arytenoid cartilage, for attachment of the thyroarytenoid muscle. Synonym: fovea oblonga cartilaginis arytenoideae, oblong pit of arytenoid cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transverse arytenoid muscle | <anatomy> A band of muscular fibres passing between the two arytenoid cartilages posteriorly; action, narrows the intercartilaginous portion of the rima glottidis; nerve supply, recurrent laryngeal. Synonym: musculus arytenoideus transversus, arytenoideus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| triangular fovea of arytenoid cartilage | A deep depression in the upper portion of the anterolateral surface of the arytenoid cartilage, lodging glands. Synonym: fovea triangularis cartilaginis arytenoideae, triangular pit of arytenoid cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| triangular pit of arytenoid cartilage | A deep depression in the upper portion of the anterolateral surface of the arytenoid cartilage, lodging glands. Synonym: fovea triangularis cartilaginis arytenoideae, triangular pit of arytenoid cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acromial articular facies of clavicle | Synonym: acromial articular surface of clavicle. (05 Mar 2000) |
