The peri-chondritis of the arytenoid frequently leads to abscess at itsbase (Fig. 124), which is recognized by its supra-glottic posi-tion, and which frequently discharges at the junction of thevocal process with the vocal cord. The cricoid cartilage suffers sometimes primarily and some-times as an extension from the disease in the arytenoids. Thecondition is recognized laryngoscopically by a swollen or ul-cerated appearance of the part, as the case may be, within the. 510 AFFECTIONS OF THE LAKYXX AXD TRACHEA. larynx, either posteriorly and beneath the glottis, or elsebulging between the vocal cords and underneath them, fromone side or the other (Fig. 125). The posterior segment is more frequent-ly the seat of disease than the anterior por-tion. The abscess in this instance maydischarge internally into the larynx, orexternally into the pharynx. The ne-crosed cartilage maybe broken into small-er or larger fragments, or be crumbled intofig. i-25. - Perichondritis of detritus.
