Abstract:
This study is a retrospective analysis of three rare cases of open external laryngeal trauma primarily resulting from self-harm attempts and assaults managed over five years. These injuries constituted a medical-surgical emergency requiring immediate, multidisciplinary intervention, including surgical exploration to repair underlying larynge al, muscular, and vascular structures. Although the patients were successfully intubated (avoiding tracheotomy), a good functional prognosis depends on prompt diagnosis, rapid management, and adherence to post-operative follow-up, which proved challenging for some patients.
