[The anatomy of the Isthmus pharyngis (author's transl)].
The boundary between the nasal and oral part of the pharynx has not yet been named definitely in surgical anatomy. The term Isthmus pharyngis in analogy to Isthmus faucium is proposed and the anatomy of this region is described. The importance of these structures in reconstructive surgery is emphasized.
