Management of blunt trauma to the larynx and trachea is based upon accurate assessment of the anatomic site of the injury, the tissue involved, the time since the injury, and the general status of the patient. Early and orderly diagnosis and classification result in early management, which is essential to maximize function and minimize morbidity. To evaluate the management and treatment results of patients with blunt trauma to the larynx and trachea, a retrospective study was performed. The office charts and hospital records of all patients with blunt trauma to the larynx and trachea from 1966 through 1976 were reviewed. Conditions studied included etiology of the trauma, initial signs and symptoms, pretreatment findings, management (primary and secondary), complications, and long-term results of management. Management results are discussed in comparison with reported results in the literature, and conclusions are presented regarding optimal treatment for the various classes of laryngotracheal injury.
喉和气管钝性创伤的处理基于对损伤解剖部位、受累组织、受伤时间以及患者一般状况的准确评估。早期且有序的诊断和分类可实现早期处理，这对于最大化功能和最小化发病率至关重要。为评估喉和气管钝性创伤患者的处理及治疗结果，进行了一项回顾性研究。回顾了1966年至1976年期间所有喉和气管钝性创伤患者的门诊病历和医院记录。研究的情况包括创伤的病因、初始体征和症状、预处理结果、处理方式（一期和二期）、并发症以及处理的长期结果。将处理结果与文献报道的结果进行比较讨论，并就各类喉气管损伤的最佳治疗提出结论。
