. Cunningham's Text-book of anatomy. Anatomy. Corniculate cartilage Lesser cornu -of hyoid Greater cornu of hyoid Body of hyoid Thyreo- epiglottic ligament Lamina of thyreoid cartilage Middle crico- thyreoid ligament H. crico- thyreoideus Fig. 855. -The Ceico-thyreoid Muscle of the Right Side. thicker above than below. They He on the cricoid cartilage and bridge over the crico-thyreoid interval, and are therefore the only intrinsic laryngeal muscles which are visible in an ordinary dissection of the neck. Each is covered laterally and in part by the thyreoid gland and the sterno- thyroid and the sterno-hyoid mus- cles. Between the two muscles of opposite sides there is an inter- mediate triangular area left in which the crico-thyreoid ligament is visible. Each crico - thyreoideus arises from the lower border and lateral surface of the arch of the cricoid cartilage, and from this origin its fibres radiate dorsally and upwards to be inserted into the inferior border and medial surface of the lamina of the thyreoid cartilage, as far as its inferior cornu, and also into the in- ferior cornu itself. As a general rule each muscle is divided into two parts, viz., (1) a pars recta composed of those fibres which are inserted into the lamina of the thyreoid car- tilage ; and (2) a pars obliqua formed of those fibres which are inserted into the inferior cornu. The muscle is closely associated with the inferior constrictor Fig. 856. -Frontal Section of the Larynx, showing Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Cunningham, D.
