Primary Tracheal Reconstruction in Cut Throat Injury of a 4 Years Old Child ()
ABSTRACT
Cut throat injuries in children
are rare, but they constitute a significant management challenge. Such injuries
are rarely reported in the literature. Evaluation and treatment of such
injuries is a tough task. Cervical tracheal injuries are relatively uncommon
and are frequently associated with esophageal, vascular or spinal injuries. We
hereby report a case of cut throat injury with incomplete transection of
trachea and its management in a four years old male child.
