Abstract
The closed laryngeal traumas by attempt of hanging are rarely studied by medical imaging. The lesions are evaluated by fiberoptic endoscopy and CT scan. We report a case of complicated lesions of the larynx wit h rupture of the cricothyroid membrane, diagnosed by CT scan and we di scuss the usefulness of this technique.
