naÂ·soÂ·pharÂ·ynx. The part of the pharynx that lies above the soft palate; anteriorly it opens into the nasal cavity; inferiorly, it communicates with the oropharynx through the pharyngeal isthmus; laterally it communicates with tympanic cavities through auditory tubes. Synonym(s): epipharynx.he uppermost of the three regions of the throat (pharynx), situated behind the nasal cavity and extending from the posterior nares to the level above the soft palate. On the posterior wall of the nasopharynx, opposite the posterior nares, are the pharyngeal tonsils.
On either side of the opening between the mouth cavity and the oral pharynx is a palatine tonsil, so called because of its proximity to the palate. Each palatine tonsil is located between two vertical folds of mucous membrane called the glossopalatine arches. The nasal pharynx, above, is separated from the oral pharynx by the soft palate. Another pair of tonsils are located on the roof of the nasal pharynx. The pharyngeal tonsils, also known as the adenoids, are part of the bodyâs immune system.
