[The hamster's larynx as an experimental model].
A macroscopic study and with light microscopy as well is performed in the larynx of 4 hamsters. Morphology of hamster's larynx is described. Transitional epithelium is found out on the epiglottis base and caudally to the vocal cords. Hamster's larynx may be a good model for experimental study of changes during carcinogenesis.
