  • A 2-month-old, intact female Alaskan Malamute was presented for evaluation of dyspnea and subcutaneous emphysema of the neck following biting wound. Two small punctured skin lesions and crepitus on the neck were found during physical examination. Radiographs revealed pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema. Confirmative diagnosis of tracheal laceration was made by identifying the tracheal wall discontinuity on the computed tomography. CT is a valuable tool to diagnose an external traumatic tracheal injury, and more specifically, to assess the location and the extent of laceration, and it leads to early definitive treatment and reduction of the incidence of complications.

  • 50세 남자환자가 교통사고로 인한 경부부종을 주소로 응급실에 내원하였다. 경부 컴퓨터 당층촬영에서 갑상연골골절에 의한 기관열상으로 경부에 광범위한 피하기종이 생긴 것으로 진단되었다. 환자는 보존적 치료후 완전한 증상의 소실을 보였다. 갑상연골골절은 드문 외상이며 이에 의한 기관열상은 보고된 바 없다. 이에 저자들은 갑상연골골절에 의한 기관열상으로 경부에 광범위한 피하기종이 발생된 환자를 치험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.
