17 Απρ 2024 · The carina of the trachea is a cartilaginous projection of the last tracheal ring, found at the bifurcation of the trachea into the left and right main (primary/principal) bronchi. It lies in the sagittal plane and is located in line with the sternal angle, at the level of the fourth thoracic vertebra (T4).
The carina of trachea is a cartilaginous ridge within the trachea that runs antero-posteriorly between the two primary bronchi at the site of the tracheal bifurcation at the lower end of the trachea (usually at the level of the 5th thoracic vertebra, which is in line with the angle of Louis, but may raise or descend up to two vertebrae higher ...
The carina is a cartilaginous ridge separating the left and right main bronchi that is formed by the inferior-ward and posterior-ward prolongation of the inferior-most tracheal cartilage.

19 Σεπ 2023 · The trachea is a D-shaped fibrocartilaginous respiratory organ. It consists of 16-20 tracheal cartilages anterolaterally and a fibromuscular wall posteriorly. The tracheal cartilages are composed of hyaline cartilage and interconnected by fibroelastic tissue.
The trachea divides into the right and left primary bronchi at the inferior end, each of which extends to a lung. The inferior tracheal cartilage forms a ridge called the carina. The carina is an important radiological landmark and it is very sensitive to mechanical stimulation.
