DescriptionUnreviewed

Although most joints of the larynx are fibrous joints (made of ligaments) the cricothyroid joint, that articulates the cricoid cartilage to the thyroid cartilage, and the crico-arytenoid joint, that articulates the arytenoid cartilages to the cricoid cartilage, are synovial joints.
