Anatomical structure of the thyroid gland and larynx.
Thyroid gland has two lobes connected by the isthmus.
Larynx has a female type of structure.
Thyroid cartilage angle is 112 degrees.
Position is changed.
Upper poles mount to the middle of upper horns of the thyroid cartilage.
Lower poles mount to the 8th-9th tracheal cartilages.
Upper border of the isthmus mounts to the cricothyroid ligament.
Shape is deformed.
Anterior surface is protruded and antedisplaced.
Lateral border is straightened and displaced to outside.
Posterior surface is protruded and displaced towards vertibri.
Medial border is displaced to the sagittal line and repeats the shape of the trachea.
