A larynx mask comprises a cover plate having a peripheral cuff adjoining thereon and is provided with a tube insertion connector at the distal end, while the tip has a special design at the proximal end. The cover plate ends in the region of the tip on the cuff, or even before that, and the esophageal passage runs as an open channel over a constricted region of the cuff. Said channel preferably comprises a widening and is delimited on both sides by reinforcement means, which are preferably formed by reinforcing walls or additionally as reinforcing ribs. Said design of the lead-through of the esophageal passage results in a considerable reinforcement of the proximal tip of the larynx mask and therefore counteracts possible kinking of the tip.
