Detailed explanation-1: -Your trachea (TRAY-kee-uh) is a long, U-shaped tube that connects your larynx (voice box) to your lungs. The trachea is often called the windpipe. It’s a key part of your respiratory system. When you breathe in, air travels from your nose or mouth through your larynx.
Detailed explanation-2: -A tracheostomy is an opening created at the front of the neck so a tube can be inserted into the windpipe (trachea) to help you breathe. If necessary, the tube can be connected to an oxygen supply and a breathing machine called a ventilator.
Detailed explanation-3: -The trachea is a midline structure and lies just anterior the esophagus. After it originates from the larynx, the trachea divides into the left and right mainstem bronchi. This junction point is called the carina.
