TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Near-complete supraglottic transection of the larynx after a motorbike accident JO - Case reports in otolaryngology A1 - Hwang, Sang A1 - McGinness, Samuel A1 - Choroomi, Sim A1 - Jacobson, Ian SP - 827902 EP - 827902 VL - 2013 IS - N2 - Severe laryngeal trauma is rare in the civilian environment and requires appropriate and timely surgical intervention. We report a case from Sydney, Australia, which was managed with open reduction and internal fixation of the larynx with resorbable plates. The use of resorbable plates for operative fixation of the larynx has rarely been reported in literature but may be a viable alternative.
