Abstract

Although rare, anterior blunt or penetrating neck trauma demand a high grade of suspicion for laryngeal injury, since the spectrum of presentation can vary and early management is imperative for good patient outcomes.

Aim: To study various clinical presentations of acute laryngeal injuries. At a tertiary care hospital, a retrospective review was performed of 30 cases. Classification was done on basis of history, type of injury, structures involved and protocol for the treatment that was followed. Few of the interesting cases are hereby discussed with novel interventions.

Keywords: Acute Laryngeal Trauma; Blunt Laryngeal Trauma
