AB  - Blunt  and  penetrating  neck  trauma  cause  a  diverse  combination  of  injuries  because  of  the  high  concentration  of  vascular,  aerodigestive,  and  neurologic  structures  in  the  neck.  Initial  presenting  signs  of  neck  injury  may  be  subtle  or  obscured  by  trauma  to  other  body  regions,  especially  in  the  setting  of  blunt  trauma.  Missed  injuries  and  delays  in  diagnosis  lead  to  patient  morbidity  and  mortality.
