Larynx anatomy

What do you need to know about the larynx? Let's have a look at the cartilages, the muscles that move the cartilages, how they move, the vocal folds and mucosal bits, and the innervation of these structures.

[@bishta4444]

Dr Sam Webster, I learned head & neck anatomy back at dental school ages ago, and now am studying it once again in preparation for my NBDE part 1 here in USA. Honestly speaking, I have never understood the anatomy of the larynx until I watched your lecture. I will never be able to thank you enough Sir.

[@dancoventry4174]

Nice!

[@nazrulsacademy4974]

I have a problem in my nasal passage. When I eat food it seems that some liquid part of food enter into my nasal passage and causes elergy. It also produce much mucus in my nasal passage and also cause to nose obtraction. What can I do sir? I called on a doctor he prescribed me montelucast and nasal spray but it does not work.

[@flaminmongrel6955]

@@nazrulsacademy4974 you are describing a structural problem the drugs are to avoid an infection in lower respiratory tract and prevent sinusitis but it is not the solution (if the problem is structural as you suggest although a proper diagnosis would be required) I am a second year Physical therapy student so what my amateur brain tells me is that your soft palate is incompetent either due to reduced functioning or the shape or size of it.

[@spidey5281]

you say youre not good with the larynx and then go and explain the most beautiful best explanation ever known to mankind?

[@msg1834]

I'm a speech language pathologist working with dysphonia patients. This is honestly the best anatomy of the larynx video I have ever seen. Very well done. Thank you so much for sharing.

you remind me of Dr. House for some reason

Dear Sam, you make incredibly useful videos! They come really handy when I feel like I need some revision. Your models are also amazing! Can't believe how is that only 120 people like this video?:O

[@Thioredoxin]

Over 5k now haha

[@user-lx1xx4fg7t]

yup! now it's 6.8 thousand, I am so content about it

[@HypnogicianUK]

Thank you very much! Being deaf trying to learn to sing I ascertained more tips from this than any vocal coaching video, now I just need to submerge myself in the bath so I can hear my vibrations executing infinite tension levels on all the muscles I can visualise and learn to contract! Watch this space, much love ❤💚💙🙏🏽

[@ulseong3709]

It was absolutely the most fantastic lecture I've ever seen! Thanks a lot Dr!

[@gamma_rays3972]

You sir, are a real life savior! Thank you. I wasn't able to understand larynx from my book. You made it a lot easier

[@holliverse1981]

Hi Sam, I am a speech and language pathologist intern/graduate student and this video was a really helpful refresher on the structures and functions of the larynx. Yeah, the true and false vocal folds are sometimes a little tricky to remember and all of the cranial nerves that innervate the muscles of the larnyx. I just finished a semester of studies this Fall focusing on Adult & Pediatric Swallowing/Feeding Disorders so understanding all of the structures of the oropharynx, nasopharynx, laryngopharynx and esophagus were important to know very well. I am currently providing speech and language services for elementary and middle school students and it's veyr rewarding. I remember learning about the anatomy and physiology of the larynx during undergrad work and our professor had us build one like the one you showed - nice homework assignment. I have to do a summer externship with adults with dysphagia, aphasia and other disorders. Looking forward to being of service to others. Thank you for this video!

[@bethanylim9096]

vet student here, there's really a relative lack of online resources for us so I decided to give this a go. There are obviously some interspecies differences between the structures & names, but overall this was so helpful to my understanding & visualisation!! Thank you so much :)

[@nafisatbusari566]

A great deliberate work at explaining the laryngeal anatomy. I have been working on the larynx for over 10 years. I will recommend this.

[@sunwiitch]

i've been establishing myself as a voice teacher (background in anthropology, linguistics and phonetics) and this immersive approach to the full, 3-dimensional anatomy of the larynx is easily more helpful than any diagram i've encountered in a book or class presentation. i will definitely be showing it to the visual learners among my students going forward. thanks so much

[@VaishnaviR16]

This is exactly what i was looking for ! Never really understood larynx until now !! Thank you so much sir.

[@guitarcrax127]

What an amazing video! I am trying to understand how the muscles that cause speech work and this is the most helpful video I have come across so far. 3D printing the parts enables incredible access to the inner workings. Cannot appreciate you enough for making and sharing this video. Labor of love.

[@sophelet]

Thank you for creating and sharing this video! I am a singer and singing coach, and the more I understand the vocal mechanism, the better. This adds more dimensions to what I already knew. Many thanks!

[@dariselv331]

You are the best! Anatomy Exam this Thursday, this video in particular has helped me tons to logically understand the larynx! Thank you Dr. W!

[@aishbala]

after over SIX years, i have FINALLY understood the larynx! what a phenomenal video, thank you dr. sam!!

[@TanyacHolt]

Only just discovered your fantastic videos. I love the style of your delivery. Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to make them. Pure gold for singing teachers like me.

[@ezgiselamet7403]

I am a med student from Turkey who aims to be a scientist in future, you've already contributed my 3 weeks long med school experience. I'm appreciated to learn everything with a deep understanding about larynx, thank you best wishes 🥰

[@ritub6422]

You have cleared my doubts so well Sir. Thank you so much. I have understood Larynx properly in my 3rd year 1st Part MBBS, all because of you. Advice to other students : See Gray's side by side.

[@vishalsolanki2626]

Amazing no words there is first time since 3rd mbbs part 1 I understand the laryngeal anatomy .and its been 5 year .one of the most loved medical video in you tube .keep going it .

[@user-lx1xx4fg7t]

Thank you, Dr Sam Webster! I am a freshman of linguistics, and I couldn't summ the things up till watching this video. It hits so different as the contract to paper pictures! Now I know how it works. Absolutely amazing video. Thank you and I wish all the best for you.

[@rogerturner6497]

I've got BVCP so I've studied and watched many videos on the anatomy of the larynx. This is by far, the best I've found

[@kaitlyncutler424]

Sam, you are a blessing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in an engaging way! I needed this boost to get through my online speech science course where anatomic lab models are sadly unavailable. Take care & Happy Easter!
