4 Fundamentals Normal Larynx

4 Normal Larynx Fundamentals | Bronchoscopy Anatomy and Airway Recognition Recognition of the normal larynx is a fundamental skill in bronchoscopy and airway evaluation. In this foundational module, we review the normal anatomy and bronchoscopic appearance of the larynx, emphasizing key structures, functional landmarks, and features clinicians must recognize during endoscopic airway examination. Designed for medical students, residents, fellows, pulmonary trainees, respiratory therapists, nurses, and practicing clinicians, this video provides a practical introduction to normal laryngeal anatomy and serves as a foundation for recognizing pathologic abnormalities encountered during bronchoscopy. Topics covered include: • Overview of normal laryngeal anatomy • Bronchoscopic appearance of the larynx • Epiglottis and supraglottic structures • True and false vocal cords • Arytenoids and posterior laryngeal anatomy • Vocal cord movement and normal function • Key anatomical landmarks during airway examination • Distinguishing normal findings from potential abnormalities • Practical interpretation tips for bronchoscopy trainees Developing familiarity with the normal larynx is essential for accurate airway assessment, safe bronchoscopy practice, and recognition of clinically significant abnormalities.
