Definition
English
:
Branches of the
VAGUS NERVE
. The superior
laryngeal nerves
originate near the
nodose ganglion
and separate into external branches, which
supply
motor fibers to the cricothyroid
muscles
, and internal branches, which carry sensory fibers. The
RECURRENT LARYNGEAL NERVE
originates more caudally and carries efferents to all
muscles
of the
larynx
except the cricothyroid. The
laryngeal nerves
and their various branches also carry sensory and autonomic fibers to the laryngeal, pharyngeal, tracheal, and cardiac regions.
