The thyroarytenoid muscle is innervated by the '''caudal laryngeal nerve''', a branch of the vagus nerve ([[Cranial Nerves - Anatomy & Physiology|CN X]]). It runs from the laryngeal floor to the '''thyroid cartilage''' and '''arytenoid cartilage''' and alters the tension of the vocal and vestibular folds. It forms part of the '''sphincter muscular arrangement'''.
