The human larynx, often referred to as the "voice box," plays a pivotal role in speech, breathing, and swallowing. This intricate structure is innervated by two sets of nerves, the recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLNs) and the superior laryngeal nerves (SLNs). Understanding the clinical significance of laryngeal nerves is crucial in the fields of otolaryngology, surgery, anesthesiology, and neurology. This article delves into the anatomy, function, and clinical importance of these nerves, shedding light on their vital role in maintaining voice and respiration.
