- Abstract:
- In the analysis of laryngeal anomalies in 30 selected phoniatric patients by CT examination, 2 atavisms of the laryngeal skeleton were found. The ventral enclosure of the thyroid cartilage by the hyoid bone presents an inhibition malformation of the laryngeal skeleton with essential reduced vocal ability. The posterior junction between the cornu majus ossis hyoidei and the cornu superius cartilaginis thyroideae is marked by the direct contact of these cornua lacking the ligamentum thyrohyoideum laterale. Both anomalies are characterized by the persistence of the close relation between the hyoid bone and the thyroid cartilage, which normally exists phylogenetically as well as ontogenetically. That could be shown by anatomical sections performed on 4 human newborns in the horizontal plane.
