Abstract

This chapter presents the anatomical structure of the human adult larynx using a whole-organ midsagittal histological section.

The whole laryngeal midsagittal section is from an autopsy case of a 54-year-old female. The larynx had no history of laryngeal diseases or voice disorders and appeared normal macroscopically.

Two types of stains were employed, hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and Elastica van Gieson (EVG) stains. And a schema of the specimen presenting the anatomical terms of the structures is shown.
