Mukherjee K et al. - The authors present the report of a 10-year-old child who had blunt cervical trauma because of a bicycle accident and subsequently presented with profound subcutaneous emphysema. The essential management principles for this rare constellation of injuries include a high index of suspicion, early control of the airway, endoscopic and radiographic diagnosis, and use of a buttressing strap muscle flap in the event of operative management to prevent delayed complications, including leak and tracheoesophageal fistula.
