| Description |
Stain: Azan. The true vocal cord consist of the vocal ligament (L) covered by stratified squamous epithelium and the striated vocal muscle (medial part of the thyreoarythenoid muscle, not depicted in this picture). At the tip of the vocal cord the stratified epithelium is distinct and the lamina propria contains elastic fibers (*, light-reddish stained) reinforced with collagen to form the vocal ligament (L). |
