Laryngopharynx, Hypopharynx - the laryngeal part of the pharynx, located below the hyoid bone. This area is located between the nasopharynx and larynx and is the transition between the respiratory tract and the digestive tract. The laryngopharynx consists of three sections: the laryngeal part of the pharynx, the larynx, and the lower part of the pharynx, also called the hypopharynx. This area plays an important role in swallowing and speech. It is also susceptible to various diseases such as cancer of the larynx and pharynx. Anatomically, the laryngopharynx is located between the oropharynx above and the esophagus below, being the central part of the pharynx.
ENT diseases of the larynx and pharynx: hypopharyngitis, laryngopharyngitis and their prevention
The larynx is one of the most important parts of the human pharynx, its main function is to supply air to the body and convert the inhaled air into a sound wave to produce voice. The hypopharynx and laryngopharyngeal region (LFOR) are located below the hyoid cartilage and form another line of defense for the body against infections of various origins. Unfortunately, these areas can often harbor infectious agents that cause serious damage to the vocal cords (laryngitis), which can lead to serious problems with a person's voice. This is how we should learn to understand the terms “Laryngopharyngohypopharyngitis” (LFRHF) and “Hypobaring” and what diseases we can prevent. What are Laryngopharyngeal and Hypobaring?

The hypopharynx is also called the part of the larynx in mammals located downward from the hyoid bones. This area is responsible for active food intake and respiratory function. The limbic system of the hypopharynx is associated with the fact that elements such as the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and parasympathetic ganglion are located in this zone. These are the active areas of the esophagus, larynx and laryngeal glands. It is worth remembering that a person simultaneously eats food and can breathe thanks to the double-armed laryngeal region, which is called the farinka. It is located below the ligamentous/arcuate (mastoid) process and in the lumen of the lateral airways of the neck. The main functions of the laryngeal part of the pharynx are the formation of the voice, voice, swallowing food and air, satisfying breathing, and preventing respiratory diseases. The laryngeal and digestive system contains connective tissues, cartilage, capillaries, arteries and muscles
