No, the glottis and the lumen of the larynx are not the same. The glottis refers specifically to the opening between the vocal cords, which plays a crucial role in phonation and breathing. In contrast, the lumen of the larynx is the entire internal space of the larynx, which includes the glottis as well as other areas. Thus, while the glottis is part of the lumen, they represent different anatomical concepts.
