| vestibulum laryngis | The upper part of the laryngeal cavity from the superior aperture to the vestibular folds, bounded anteriorly by the epiglottis, laterally by themucosa overlying the quadrangular membranes and posteriorly by the mucosa overlying the arytenoid cartilages and arytenoideus muscle. Synonym: vestibulum laryngis, atrium glottidis, superior laryngeal cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |

| membrana fibroelastica laryngis | A layer of fibrous and elastic fibres, taking the place of the submucosa in the larynx. It is divided by the laryngeal ventricle into two parts: the quadrangular membrane superiorly and the conus elasticus inferiorly. Synonym: membrana fibroelastica laryngis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculi laryngis | The intrinsic muscles that regulate the length, position and tension of the vocal cords and adjust the size of the openings between the aryepiglottic folds, the ventricular folds and the vocal folds. Synonym: musculi laryngis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corniculum laryngis | 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) |
| sacculus laryngis | A small diverticulum provided with mucous glands extending upward from the ventricle of the larynx between the vestibular fold and the lamina of the thyroid cartilage; it is a vestigial structure, being a much larger structure interdigitating with the neck musculature in some of the great apes where it serves as a resonating chamber. Synonym: sacculus laryngis, appendix ventriculi laryngis, Hilton's sac, laryngeal pouch. Origin: L. Sacculus (05 Mar 2000) |

| buccal mucosa | <anatomy, gastroenterology> Mucous membrane lining the inner cheek. (27 Sep 1997) |
| bursa mucosa | <anatomy> A sac containing synovial fluid which occurs at sites of friction, as between a tendon and a bone over which it plays, or subcutaneously over a bony prominence. The NA lists the following types: subcutaneous synovial bursa, bursa synovialis subcutanea; submuscular synovial bursa, bursa synovialis submuscularis; subfascial synovial bursa, bursa synovialis subfascialis; and subtendinous synovial bursa, bursa synovialis subtendinea. Synonym: bursa synovialis, bursa mucosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vaginal mucosa | The mucous membrane of the vagina. Synonym: tunica mucosa vaginae. (05 Mar 2000) |

| gastric mucosa | Surface epithelium in the stomach that invaginates into the lamina propria, forming gastric pits. Tubular glands, characteristic of each region of the stomach (cardiac, gastric, and pyloric), empty into the gastric pits. The gastric mucosa is made up of several different kinds of cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| giant hypertrophy of gastric mucosa | Gastric mucosal hyperplasia, either mucoid or glandular; the latter type may be associated with the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Synonym: giant hypertrophy of gastric mucosa, hypertrophic gastritis, Menetrier's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
