摘要:
The topographic anatomical study on the distribution pattern of the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) in the larynx was studied in thirteen adult dogs. The ramus posterior of the SLN divides into two branches; the interarytenoid branch (IA) and the pharyngoesophageal branch (PE). The IA on both sides connect to the cricoid ganglion (CG) in the midline at the cranial border of the cricoid cartilage. Posterior glottic branches arise from the IA, run over the cricoid cartilage, and distribute fibers to the posterior wall of the glottis. Every specimen observed in the present study possessed the CG and the posterior glottic branches. The subglottic branch derives from the IA near the cricoid ganglion, and passes through the cricoid foramen (CF) (Yoshida, 1986). The subglottic branch distributes fibers to the subglottic mucous membrane covering the cricothyreoid ligament. The CF and the subglottic branch were observed on both sides of seven specimens out of thirteen dogs. They were also observed on only one side in three specimens, and were not detectable on either side in the three remaining specimens. The silver impregnation applied in the semimicroscopic dissection facilitated identification of the precise localization and the topographic arrangement of ganglia and nerve bundles.
