Zusammenfassung

Verletzungen des Larynx und der Trachea sind selten. Aufgrund ihrer Lokalisation können sie jedoch für den Patienten erhebliche Konsequenzen haben. Eine frühzeitige Diagnostik und die Sicherung der Atemwege sind für das Überleben der Patienten von entscheidender Bedeutung. In einer Übersicht werden die Anatomie, die Pathomechanismen und die Klassifizierungen der Verletzungen mit ihren Therapieoptionen dargestellt.
