Fracture on Greater Horn of the Hyoid Bone

Abstract

The primary symptom of a hyoid bone fracture is a sharp pain that increases with swallowing, coughing, and speaking in front of the neck. Closed hyoid fractures may be asymptomatic or may be missed in the presence of multiple injuries. It may cause clinical findings such as difficulty in swallowing and speaking, pain, limitation in mouth opening. Soft and hard tissue manifestations of neck trauma should be carefully evaluated. If there is a strong clinical suspicion of organ damage, ancillary diagnostic methods such as computed tomography, direct nasolaryngoscopy, pharyngoscopy, and laryngobronchoscopy may be useful to exclude or confirm the possibility of injury.
