Cricoid cartilage is attached to the thyroid cartilage in the presence of cricothyroid ligament. There is also a cricotracheal ligament that attaches the cricoid cartilage to the first ring of the trachea [ 3 ].

However, it is tougher than tendon or ligament. Unlike tendon and ligament, cartilage can withstand a great degree of compression.
