The interarytenoid (IA) muscle has rarely been studied in the living larynx. In this work, the role of the IA muscle in phonation was studied in three dogs by means of an in vivo phonation model. The isolated action of the IA muscle was studied by sectioning and stimulating its nerve branch. As IA activity increased, subglottic pressure increased significantly until a plateau was reached. In the absence of superior laryngeal nerve stimulation, the fundamental frequency rose with increasing IA activity. In the presence of superior laryngeal nerve stimulation, however, no significant change in fundamental frequency was observed with increasing IA activity. Measurement of adductory force demonstrated that the IA muscle adducts primarily the posterior vocal fold. In this canine model, phonation was not possible without IA stimulation, owing to a large posterior glottic chink.
