Anatomy. The larynx is located at the point where the respiratory and digestive tracts separate. The entrance to the larynx, or laryngeal inlet, is in the anterior wall of the laryngopharynx. Internally, the wall of the larynx is modified to form the vocal cords.
Gross anatomy We now shift away from histologic anatomy to focus on the macroscopic or gross anatomic features of the larynx. Vocal fold shape and movement are primarily the result of intrinsic laryngeal muscle activity (Fig. 3). To a lesser degree, extrinsic laryngeal muscles also affect vocal fold shape and movement.
