From the kenhub page referenced:

The internal surface of the thyroid cartilage is covered by a mucous membrane. The angle serves as the attachment point for several laryngeal ligaments and muscles such as the thyroepiglottic, vestibular and vocal ligaments as well as the thyroarytenoid, thyroepiglottic and vocalis muscles.

  • We can add the exact synonym 'internal surface of thyroid cartilage' (also in PMID:30855790)
  • It lists more muscles and ligaments that are suported by this structure.

name: outer cortex of thyroid cartilage
def: "The outer region of the thyroid cartilage containing denser hyaline cartilage with a higher collagen matrix density, providing structural rigidity. It serves as the attachment site for extrinsic muscles (e.g., sternothyroid, thyrohyoid) via the oblique line on the external surface."
