Blunt laryngeal trauma: an unusual case.

Local external evidence of neck trauma--bruising, subcutaneous emphysema, cuts, abrasions and so on--signs of upper airway obstruction, dysphonia and dysphagia are the hallmarks of laryngotracheal lesions. Such lesions tend to occur after motor vehicle accidents and usually require surgery. We describe a case of blunt laryngeal trauma, resulting from an unusual mechanism, which healed spontaneously.
