Abstract | Tracheal trauma is an uncommon but potentially serious cause of airway injury in children. Presentation may be acute in cases of blunt or penetrating trauma, or delayed in cases of chronic irritation or indwelling endotracheal tubes. Symptoms include dyspnea, progressive respiratory distress, neck and chest swelling and ecchymosis, and dysphonia. Workup is pursued as allowed by the patient's clinical status and may include plain radiography, computed tomography, and endoscopy. Accuracy and efficiency of diagnosis is paramount for those at risk of rapid decompensation. Treatment may include observation, elective and strategic intubation, or primary surgical repair. |
