AbstractThe larynx serves as the gateway between the upper and lower respiratory tracts and is involved in the tasks of phonation, deglutition, and airway protection. Familiarity with the complex anatomy of the larynx is critical for detecting and characterizing disease in the region, especially in cancer staging. In this article, we review the anatomy of the larynx and cervical trachea, including an overview of their cartilages, supporting tissues, muscles, mucosal spaces, neurovascular supply, and lymphatics, followed by correlation to the clinically relevant anatomic sites of the larynx. Imaging techniques for evaluating the larynx and trachea will also be discussed briefly.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
