Precursor 4th and 6th branchial arch System Artery Vein Nerve Lymph MeshName Cricoid Cartilage MeshNumber A02.165.507.211 DorlandsPre DorlandsSuf The cricoid cartilage , or simply cricoid from the Greek krikoeides meaning ring shaped , is the only complete ring of cartilage around the Vertebrate trachea trachea . Location The cricoid cartilage sits just inferior to the thyroid cartilage in the neck , and is joined to it medially by the median cricothyroid ligament and postero laterally by the cricothyroid joints. Inferior to it are the rings of cartilage around the trachea which are not continuous rather they are C shaped with a gap posteriorly . The cricoid is joined to the first tracheal ring by the cricotracheal ligament , and this can be felt as a more yielding area between the firm thyroid cartilage and firmer cricoid. It is also anatomically related to the thyroid gland although the thyroid isthmus is inferior to it, the two lobes of the thyroid extend superiorly on each side of the cricoid as far as the thyroid cartilage above it. The Anatomical terms of location posterior part of the cricoid is slightly broader than the anterior and lateral parts, and is called the lamina anatomy lamina , while the anterior part is the band this may be the reason for the common comparison made between the cricoid and a signet ring . Function The function of the cricoid cartilage is to provide attachments for the various muscle s, cartilages, and ligament s involved in opening and closing the Vertebrate trachea airway and in Phonation speech production . Composition It is made of hyaline cartilage , and so can become chondrocalcinosi ... more details
