Which of laryngeal cailage is elastic?
The other cailages of the larynx, e.g. epiglottis corniculate, cuneiform and processes of the arytenoid are made of elastic cailage and do not ossify. Epiglottic Cailage/Epiglottis is a leaf-shaped cailage placed in the anterior wall of the upper pa of the larynx. Its upper end is broad and free and projects upwards behind the hyoid bone and the tongue. The lower end is pointed and is attached to the upper pa of the angle between the two laminae of the thyroid cailage. Ref: BD Chaurasia's HUMAN ANATOMY, Volume 3, 4th edition.
