Lauth, Mem. de 1'Acad. deMed. 1835. A portion of Jig. 29 enlarged to demonstrate the di- rection and result of the forces of the muscles of the larynx.

Some fibres of the thyro-arytenoid take an oblique direction back- wards and downwards, arising immediately below the superior internal margin of the angle of the thyroid, and are inserted into the ver- tical prominence of the arytenoid cartilage: they are sometimes detached from those passing horizontally, as in d, (fig 28,) constituting the thyro-arytenoidei superiores of Albinus, but they are sometimes described as one muscle. The thyro-arytenoideus corresponds to the internal surface of the thyroid cartilage, from which it is separated by some loose cellular and adipose tissue. Internally it is in contact with the inferior vocal ligament, which lies in contact with the thickest part of this muscle, the bulk of which causes the vocal ligaments on each side to project towards the mesial line and contracts the aperture of the larynx.
