B. The thyroid cartilage articulates with the cricoid by two small arthrodisB, which unite the posterior extremities of the branches of the first cartilage with the facets on the external face of the second. A thin external capsule incloses this articulation (Fig. 227, 2). These two cartilages are also held together by means of a membranous elastic ligament—the crico- thyroid memorane, which passes from the angle comprised between the two branches of the thyroid to the anterior notch of the cricoid (Fig. 228, 3). C. The two arytenoid cartilages are united, at their superior border, by the arytenoid muscle and laryngeal mucous membrane. D. The latter cartilages are brought into contact with the anterior facets of the cricoid bezel, by means of the concave articular surface of their posterior border; the result is a small, but very movable, arthrodial joint, inclosed by a thin external capsule and by the surrounding muscles (Fig. 227 1). E. These cartilages are also united to the thyroid through the medium of the vocal cords. These are two elastic bands which project within the larynx, and between them include the triangular space termed the glottis; their internal face is covered by the mucous membrane of the larynx ; the thyro-hyoid muscles envelop their external face ; their inferior extremity is fiied into the crico-thyroid membrane, and the angle of the thyroid cartilage ;.
