Abstract:
A histomorphological picture of surgically removed cicatricial tissue was compared in two groups of patients with deformations of the larynx and trachea: operated within 1-2 months after trauma and 6-12 months after it. Chronic productive inflammation was found in the tissue early after trauma, while later, mature scar tissue was forming. The conclusion is made that operation early after trauma in combination with conservative therapy may prevent deformation and dystrophic changes in the cartilages as well as development of scar tissue.

The Larynx
It is located between the pharynx and the trachea, acts as a passageway for air, and hosts several critical structures, such as the epiglottis, vocal cords, and glottis. The epiglottis acts as a gateway, guiding food to the...
Larynx
Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids, corniculates, and...
